Lucky bastard. So when I had my nitrous explosion a couple years ago which really did a number on the windshield, Florida would have replaced it for free (if I lived in Florida?)

Replaced for free by the state. How lucky you are, Tovarisch. :laughlots:

I was quoted right around $250 for mine.

A lot of states have $0 deductible on glass. Check your policy. Massachusetts is one. I live in New Hampshire and a stone got kicked up and put a nice crack in mine. The insurance covered it, $0 deductible.

I was quoted $250 from a local glass place (plain windshield), but the dealership wanted $550 to install the OEM style windshield (with the running horse). :thud:

I would probably go for the one with the Pony on it, only because I'm kind of weird about stuff like that with my vehicles.

ahh, i got the glass with out it.

reason i did is because, i've always waned to put a tint strip on the top of the window and was not gonna put it over that dot matrix stuff, now i'll be able to put the tint up there with ou it looking stupid. and i figured since i couldnt remember ever looking at the pony up there it wont hurt me not to have it

I just had one replaced last week. The total price was about $320 for mobile service (they came to my office and did it in 30 minutes). All I paid was $100 deductible.
