New windshield

Hello all,
I am looking for a new OEM windshield for a 1988 911 Carrera. I am in the Pacific Northwest. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ironically, many people still go to the dealer, you get the right glass and no shipping. The 914 guys swear by this. I know crazy, walk into a Porsche dealer and tell them you need glass for a decades old car, but it's one thing they are still doing right.

You are 100%. Mike does all my windshields. He told me he could no longer get a windshield for a 968 He said dealer and I just got the glass from them no shipping and a good price ($800)

It seems crazy but there is one thing you don't want to get cheap on, it's glass. I bought a batch of Chinese made windshields for 356 a few years ago, the fit was bad. And if you order good glass from an outside source it costs as much as the dealer, but you have to worry about shipping.
