If you provide the glass it's cheaper, you should be able to get one from a junkyard for less than a brand new one.

I had my windshield replaced a couple of months ago with new rubber molding for $240. Can't really beat that. I'm betting you could do better since my glass had to be shipped in from the US.

Mine was replaced for 130 installed at a local glass shop, I have had it crack twice(fire damage the first time, hail damage the second).

Im not sure what insurance company you use but my glass is 100% paid for by them, no cost even when a stone hit mine. check your coverage

I found a local wholesale place that sells custom parts and stuff. Bought the windshield brand new for $50. Then went over 10 blocks to Picknpull were they have a glass installation place right next to it. Paid $60 for the install.
