Last time they put in junk Chinese glass. I think it was the brand Brian mentioned. Previously thay had used Pilkington. I've never been able to get Sigla, but I think you can ask them to look for other glass than the Chinese stuff. Mine has a visible ripple. If someone could get Sigla locally for $350, like Rob Budd did, I'd be impressed. All-Star's website indicates they use Sekurit as well as Pilkington, PPG, etc.

I'll show you my windshield friday.....its "repaired", but still looks horrible.... I called All Star....they say they can't do it....only the non antenna windshield....but Pilkington is out of stock on both :>( she said the KYG windshields are "okay"...some are good but some aren't..... She thought a used windshield would be best?

Jim, got any nice ones? I'll check tomorrow!

It's pitiful how inconsistent the glass installers are from one to the next. One shop will find antenna glass, the next can't. One can get Sigla, most have no clue. Once can get Pilkington in a day, others can't find any. Another will say they can get whatever you want only to call back 3 weeks later and say they can't find anything.

I got Pilkington from Pro Source glass. Green tint with green shade, with antenna was $500 including about $120 freight.
