Title: Looking for recommendation on replacement windshield
Post by: geomm on October 31, 2012, 03:30:43 pm
Greetings,

Can anyone recommend the a supplier with the best price and availability for a Drivers side windshield (and probably -- gasket)?. I have a 1995 U300. The drivers side glass is shattered over 25% of the surface.

The Coach is in Southern California (Ventura County)

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Hi Michael,

My experience, learned the hard way as usual - 2 times, is that you need to order from Foretravel if you want it to fit ;D  Almost any good glass shop can install however it's got to fit 1st.

Micheal,  My experience was that aftermarket glass does not fit, when my 95 U280 needed both WS's Duncan Glass insisted that it would fit Iinstaller took one look at it in the crate and said no.  Glass was then ordered from FT and installed with new gasket, no problem since.

I had both windshields replaced in 2009 on our 95 U280SE.  Our local Guardian Glass had them in stock.  They told me that they were the OEM and they gave us a lifetime warranty on leakage and was told I could go to any Guardian Glass around the country if it needs resealed.
