who's the krinkov/vincent of windshield replacement?
as jeremy:clearbra and vincent:tint...
I ask this because i've searched high and low and havent been able to find the hands down "go to" guy for getting my windshield replaced. live in danville, and work in fremont, so either of those areas i can go to. my deductible is 500 bucks, so im looking to spend less than 200 on a quality job.
I posted in an old thread, but got no response, so if anyone can help me out thatd be great. called premier auto glass as was recommended in the other thread and it was like 900+ for oem glass. that hurt my ears.
thanks for the help fellas.

I got a nice 4" crack going on the passenger side as well after the Mt. Hammy drive. No complaints here as I also tossed up my share of rocks. Maybe we can get a group deal on the windshields

Don's mobile.
he comes to your house and installs a new windshield for about $180 or even less. i have his number at home.... i'll get it soon. i got the advice from some thread on i-club baic a few months back. search windshield and my sn i guess.
good thing its inexpensive too, cuz i already got another rock crack

Premier auto glass, they did a group buy for i-club a while back and honored that price when i mentioned it to them a while afterwards. I got charged 175, after months and many rocks, the windshield is still going strong. They are located off of o'toole.

does anyone know of a shop that will do it correctly, though?
are these shops reputable? none of the windshield replacements I've had done have been done well; they have all resulted in whistles and increased wind noise.
