Bill W,
The replacement windshield with the sun band set me back $315 installed. I didn't ask for the sun band so after they installed it (struggled for 2 hours) I told them I didn't want that and that I wanted one like the original. I only held them on the hook for a second or two before releasing them...
The problemo with the Sun Band windshield...is...the dark tint on the top.
If the driver is over 6 feet tall...at night...it can be hard to see thru.
'Course that won't affect two posters in this thread.
Not gonna mention names, but when I met both of them last year at a local truck show, I thought they were both standing in holes.
The Sun Band replacement sounds like a good option for me, as I'm only 5'8". My windshield is the original and is quite pitted and shows signs of windshield wiper wear over the years. Living in the northwest ALL windshields get heavy use of wipers and it wears a pattern on the windshield no matter how clean you keep the windshield or the blades.
Today was the day i had a new windshield installed in my 66, i went with the PPG glass with the sunband, cost just shy of 250 using my DC whindshield rubber, and what a difference!! i can actually see now.
I think i know where the term "Slap" a windshield in came from. lol
Yup...between the guy on the inside pulling the string to bring in the rubber and the guy on the outside pushing and "Slapping" the windshield...it's a perfect term for it!!!
