I bought a new one made in China for $180 a month ago....looks fine to me, fits well. Most windshield companies can find it but you have to ASK.

I got mine from prosource. Availabilty from different suppliers may depend on windshield options. My 85 has the in glass antena which complicates finding a replacement.

A local company replaced my windshield last month. It took 3 days for them to order and receive it. They told me "our supplier has 1 left in stock". Bottom line was $315 installed.

Thats just an oops, I was chasing down some parts once and found a local independent Porsche shop. Owner was real proud that he maintained this 928 for his customer since new, and had just put in a new windshield supplied by Porsche, $2k for the glass. He didn't believe me that Sigla factory glass exactly the same as he put in sells for $300 installed.

Some glass place recently posted on Pelican, 928 main section or parts I forget, but they had two bronze with antenna wind shields.
