#16 of 16 Where should I go to replace my windshield? by echow Dec 29, 2008 (4:19 pm)
So I'm a new TL owner and unfortunately I already have a crack on my windshield. The quote I received from the dealer is $900. I have found other glass repair shops that charge around $2-300. Should I go to the dealer to replace it or go to the cheaper shops? Thanks
