Default Recommendations on upholstery and auto glass shop?

Hi guys,
I have a little crack in the bottom of my driver seat. I would like to have that fixed and may be adding a little more cushion to the seat while I'm at it. Can anybody recommend a good, reasonable upholstery shop in O.C? Also, I need a auto glass shop to replace my cracked windshield. Please advice?
Thanks.

Glass repair/replacement, All Star Glass or Safelite are the most popular here in SoCal. They are both mobile.

If you go to downtown LA, they will replace your windshield for you while you wait. There is a street where all the shops are, they will compete in prices for you too! My friend got his windshield replaces for $90, installed.

Remember to be picky about the glass you put on your car, especially the front windshield. I had a rear quarter replaced on my SC3 after a break-in and used a temperlite replacement. They got the tint and fit down, but the glass has a small amount of optical distortion, which leaves me unhappy every time I look at the car. Will be getting OEM glass to get the job done right.

GF had her front windshield replaced, and while the glass was good, the tint on the top of the windshield was slightly crooked.

Again, hardly noticable for most people...but annoying if you are particular about these types of things.
