If your car is as old as mine, and it most likely is, because you're here... the windshield if you have been lucky and haven't had it break, then it's probably pitted and sand blasted just by father time. And no matter how clean you get it, if the sun catches it just right, it's really bad, and seeing out becomes more difficult.

Project Summary - Front Windshield Replacement
Difficulty Scale 10
Parts Cost $0-$100?

I was shocked, but I just called up my State Farm Agent, and they forwarded me to Lynks, and all they did is ask me a few questions, and they replaced it, no inspection or anything. I had two tiny rock chips in the window for the past 5 years, but otherwise, it was okay, and they just replaced it for free. You know there is those local shops everywhere that offer something free. They waved $75 off my $100 deductible, and they were there the next day, and I got 24 free dinners at some local crappy restaurant. I'm sure there is some similar deal in your town.

While you're doing this (Well the glass guy is doing this), and your front window is out, you may be interested in replacing your windshield seal, (no more drips in the car) upgrading your front speakers, or doing something to your dash. Oh, and of course, getting those pens and pennies out of there!!!

Hey! Remember, when you are doing this, to get yourself a nice new Mercedes-Benz Sticker! ($4)
