So I have a decent sized crack in my windshield and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for companies that do replacement windshield installation in the Folsom area.

A lot of companies to mobile r

Sorry, mobile error.
Most companies are mobile and willing to travel to you. I'd suggest checking through your insurance as they usually work with their preferred vendor. And, not sure if its important to you but you can request oem windshields!

I've replaced many windshields during the 80 construction. :|

Yea.. Just when I google windshield repair, theirs negative and positive reviews for each, or none at all.

I would go through my insurance except my deductible is a grand.

glass

a mobile guy should be able to have it delivered, installed, and dispose of the old one for around $160-$200. If you are looking for an OEM replacement, I was quoted $400-$700 (depending on WRX or STi Heated windshield) for just the part only. My insurance deductable was $500 so I just went with the cheaper route.

Does the 2006 wrx have any fancy heated glass or anything?

I've used them before to replace my back window and they were pretty cheap and come with a life time warranty, but hey if you know a guy that knows a guy that might know a guy, then go with that guy!
