Cracked windshield, where to replace it?

[JiNuWiNe]

My mom drives a 92 lexus es300 and the windshield just cracked yesterday. I'm now looking for a shop to replace the windshield. I got a quote from Apple auto glass and they want $250 parts/labour incl. Anyone know of a shop that will charge me less?

Thanks.

That seems to be a pretty decent price that you were quoted. Call Jimmy; he knows a guy.

That's dirt cheap!

Try searching I'm sure this has been covered more than once already!

That is a great price, but is that OEM glass with a rain sensor?

Search the forums as there have been a few threads on it.

My wife used Speedee Gonzalez to replace her Tiburon's windshield nearly a year ago. Very reasonable price, they come to you for the install, no complaints. Do a search on them for feedback.

^^ Search for Speedee
A lot of memebers (myself included) have used him. Also check his feedback on other car forums (i.e. VWVortex) he gets awesome reviews and his prices are really cheap

Go to that Speedy guy. If you can wait till Spring, lets call him together and get a better deal on 2 cars b/c I need a new windshield.

Ahhh, wait until spring and do it yourself. They're not that bad to do, I've done hundreds.

I believe he was charging between 350-400 with the rain sensor. Thats a very good price.

I ended up going to Flash Auto Glass earlier this spring and they charged me $420 (OEM Sensor version)

Got it replaced by Pedro (Speedee) at my house for $180 cash. Not OEM but the car is old anyways.

Thanks for all the input.

Did that include the rain sensor?
