Not only that, but they will come to the truck and install it for free. Can't beat that.

When I replaced mine, I couldn't believe the difference with the new one. Like watching TV with crappy rabbit ears versus an HDTV with perfect reception.

Just something to think about with a junkyard windshield. Plus, you should get free chip repair.
