Default Windshield Replacement shops in Socal...

Anybody know of a good place to replace windshields? This is gonna come out of my pocket

I got a hairline that was behind my rearview mirror now it seems to be stretched out longer

Anywhere around the 562/310/714 area....
Much appreciated!!

Thanks,
Dara

=) I've known a few who drove with cracked windshields for years! Haha I drove one time holding my windshield up in a corner after I got nailed by a 4x4 piece of wood from a truck

I'll ask see if he would be willing To make the trip for a bit of a gas charge or something

I just had mine replaced.... $235 from Safelight. They use PPG glass.

And go get a new gasket from the dealer. On my 06, it was cracked. He used the old one because the glass was already out...
