Windshield and sliding rear window - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Where is the best place to order these from. I am at a point I need to get them put in on my build and having it done is super high so thought I would give it a shot myself. I have done them before but it's been years ago. I would like to get them both from one supplier if I can so I could hopefully not have so much in shipping.

I bought my front windshield from LMC truck. waiting to get paint done to install them. I forget where I bought my sliding window from its a power slider.

I just got a windshield from lmc also. Packed very well. Saved $100 on glass (compared to shop price) and about $150 by installing myself. Not easy but doable. Rear was a breeze , front took 4-5 tries. Trim made job difficult.

I ordered my front windshield through Summit Racing, great price, awesome packaging. I was fortunate enough to find my rear slider used at a swap meet.

I’ve got an appointment to have one installed tomorrow. $250 for tinted glass with a new seal and installed. I was looking at doing it myself and it was gonna cost $249 without a seal just to get the glass to me. I like doing my own work, but I think I’m ending up with a better deal.

C.R. Laurence is where I bought my rear slider

DWilbur, what kind of price on rear slider, look like pretty slick units

I don't recall what I paid for the rear slider I bought it about 3 years ago.

I had a local glass company order my windshield. It was $91.00 delivered in 2014 or 2015. It's made by PGW.

Wow 250 installed! A great price ! Not really worth doing it yourself at that price. Plus its probably guaranteed not to leak!

I didn’t see it worth being turned down. At least I won’t have to hassle with it in this NC Heat.

I called a local company and I have the new gaskets already. They were going to supply front and back glass installed $975. I thought that was ridiculous. That's why I am looking to do it myself.
