Default Help with windshield removal !

As some Club Lexus members are aware, my SC as a crack on the windshield and i am getting a little irritated of people asking me what happened. (IDK i bought it in that condition) So i am asking for help from Fellow SC lovers to help get a used one from the junk yard. There is a good supply of SC in Los Angeles' pick your part locations, so we can pick one up there. if anyone knows how to do this or have the tools lmk...thank you

Honestly it's so much easier just to get an aftermarket one as they install them as part of the price. If you don't have the tools/knowledge it's likely you will end up cracking the new one you get during install... Ask me how I know

I've never had any issues with aftermarket as opposed to OEM.

I would never recommend doing the windshield as a DIY to anyone, there are alot of dangers if it is not done just right, requires specialty tools, and is not something that is done easily on the first handful of tries even.
Just get the oem glass from the junkyard and get a pro to install it if you are that concerned about having an oem one.
