Default Reputable windshield replacement company in the Bay Area

Hi guys, unfortunately after 4 years on the road my wife's IS got a huge crack on the windshield from the all so frequent highway rock. Does anyone in the Bay Area have a recommendation to a place for windshield replacement? Also she has the rain sensor, is there anything I need to look out for before deciding on a place?
Thanks

KWG, Secureway autoglass got some impressive reviews on Yelp. Do you know if they use OEM glass?

No matter you go dealer or not, most shops out source windshield jobs on or off the site. The difference is the price depending on o/e parts or aftermarket parts.
