$100 each installed in a 71 Blazer and a 70 GMC by my local Safelite - I provided the Precision gasket for both windows, which was better than the one they were going to use - they provided the glass/labor. My insurance covers a portion of cracked windshields and has an arrangement with Safelite.

2 guys did it. The new guy called the older gey after he checked it out and said he wanted to help. It didn't matter to me if the price was the same. It took them 3 hours to do both trucks in my driveway.

I watched the videos online and then found out the price for one installed was only $100 - I didn't think twice about making the call for a pro to do it.

No trim in either truck seal though - which seems to play a part in the difficulty.
