Beware - I just had a windshield replacement at the local dealership - wanted it done right with good German Porsche glass (Sigla). $1700 installed (86.5, w/ embedded ant). The glass alone was $1100+, and there was a $100 kit for the install.
The glass is wavy, right in the middle at eye level! It sucks! Also, the dealer didn't actually do the install, but sub'd it out on the lot, and the job was bad (made them redo it). To top it off, caught a stone the next day, and got a star. Was repaired, badly....moral of the story - even good glass is hit/miss, might as well pay the lowest possible dollar for glass and installation that you can find! Even good glass is hit/miss, and as we already knew, dealers disappoint!
