Be sure to get a good, quality replacement. Cheapies will de-laminate even quicker and when they get pitted it's almost impossible to see with the glare of night. My '80 was BAD about that. The glass from newer trucks seems to be of better quality, but you'll have to scrape some of the black border away to expose the different VIN location. Windshield in my '92 has a crack from side to side, but it's so clear otherwise, I'm not interested in replacing it.
I've used "Choice Auto Glass" a few times. They come right to your house. Don't know if any are in your area. Might want to check with area body shops and see if they have any recommendations.
In my state, as long as it's not over 2 inches wide from the edge into the field of vision, it will pass inspection like that. I have many many old cars and trucks and they all had a little bit of that around the edges.
Yeah I've had a couple pass like that, but dang it's just one of those things that bug the heck out of you. I think Guardian is the glass they used in the newer ones, a legitimate glass shop should be able to still get them. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you have a buddy, even then it's a PITA. Glass shops have those special suction cups to lay the glass precisely in place, and they should have a guarantee on defects and leaks.
