Windshield help needed quickly!
I need help quickly.
I have a 77 911s that has a broken windshield, so I decided to update the window seal to the 964 style
(Trimless seal, no chrome trim). People on this BBS has stated that if, you replace both the seal and windshield with that of a 964 that it would fit. So I ordered the trim from Pelican –
“M-541-225-00 Windshield Seal (W/O trim groove), coupe/targa/cabriolet, 911/911 Turbo (1989) or 911 Carrera 2/4 (1989-94) all. “
When I sent the car to the glass shop, they said the glass for an 89-94 911 and the seal that I supplied was too large for this 77 911. I told them that it was suppose to fit, so he used a little too much force and broke the glass. WOW- $595.00 for windshield only.
Now the glass guy is pissed because he has to eat the cost of the glass, he said if it ends up that this setup doesn’t work he might bill me for the broken glass plus the cost of the install of whatever we do end up installing. Now I’m pissed, can someone confirm that the “964” is the same as a “911 89-94 “. And are there any tricks that I need to tell these guys. Has any one done this to the car before that might have some input.
The car is still at the shop waiting for more glass to arrive , I need to tell them something soon.
HELP
Rick
