I got one guy which Im going to call up soon due to my windshield being cracked too. Speede Gonzales, Quoted me $200 for a job done in my driveway. A lot of people are happy with his work. Check it out VWvortex Forums: Speedy Gonzales / Star Auto Glass = awesome

hey guys! I also need to replace my windshield

this topic was actually going to be my first post! good thing i searched first
I recently bought a 2000 a4 1.8T

so this guy is charging $200? thats cheap IMO - and I would also like to know if the replacement is aftermarket or OEM?
(not sure if there is a real difference.....but is there not a bit of a tint or anti-glare feature in the OEM windshield?)

I had to replace my windshied on my 2002 golf a while back, and that cost me $500+

anyway, guess I'm too late to try and jump in on a group deal, but that's ok. $200 is still cheaper than I had expected to have to shell out....

Got my windshield replaced by Speedie Gonzales yesterday. $220 installed. Aftermarket w/ anti-glare & slight tint. Looks really nice.

$220 installed in 1/2 hour. These guys are good.
