Probably don't wanna drive up to Beaverton, Oregon but I went to MS Glass (http://www.msglass.net/ ) and got a windshield with new seal put in my for $160 ...it is not factory glass but it doesn't leak and seems to fit well..Seems you should be able to get it done cheaper.

I did find a couple is in the junkyards and was going to go that route but alway found a hairline crack at the base when I got the seal cut out..

That price sounds way high.

The price you were quoted sounds really high to me, I would check around.

Here at the Toyota dealership I work for there are two prices.

Toyota - $150 with labor and new seals and a lifetime warranty on craftsmanship

Non-Toyota - $225 with labor and new seals and limited lifetime warranty on craftsmanship

We use either Satellite Glass or AutoLite.

You could try it - keep in mind these are the prices we (the dealership) pays to get them done.

There aren't many Toyota dealerships that have in-house windshield work done. Some do though.

I'd just call and ask - they will probably tell you the name of the company they use and you can just call them and go directly through them.

Id thought about putting it in my self but the money you save is not worth the rish cause you break it in the process 90% of the time. I mean I can see out of my window and all and it dosnt leak, thanks to silcone lol but yah hopefully they come down other wise im gonna have to get winshield insurance and wait a couple months to claim it.

i had mine done a month ago. New seal and windshield installed was 239.45. I dont live in Utah but I had it done in Utah in a very small town and it was an insurance claim. I thought it was kinda high but I didnt bitch because I have no deductible and it was insured.

I have a good friend who own a auto glass company based out of salem, I think he would drive to roseburg as business in that line of work is slow right now.. give him a call. His prices seem VERY competitive. JD glass solutions 971-218-2082 Jon.

Can I ask where you got it done? I'm in Utah for school and my windshield cracked from the heat in spring and is only getting bigger.
