Zack_Morris Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 This would probably be better off in the BS section, it would see more traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomad Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I'd definatly take one, maybe more depending on price. Maybe this should be a Group Purchase so that there can be a list of those who are committed. Maybe the more we buy, the cheaper they get. Anyome who actually drives their car more than it sits should have one of these on hand because they are so scarace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahjah Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 OR MAYBE..... You could just give a price instead of fishing to see how bad we need them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conquest396 Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) What is a lead? From a manufacturer that can make them for us or some glass shop sitting with 5 NOS ones? If someone were to get a lead on a manufacturer it should be made public so we can have a local glass installer call and order as needed so we dont have to pay high shipping charges and support for our cars can increase in the aftermarket I am interested in one but if these are being made currently or again by a manufacturer they should beinexpensive through our local glass guys Edited June 10, 2009 by conquest396 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collect89t Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I have a brand new windshield installed on my 89 quest last month thru a friend of friend who own an autoglass shop out near Houston ,TX .I was the lucky one because I tried to find out if he can get the company that made it way back to reproduce some more for the Quest and Starion owners but no luck at all. the company name Viacom glass. the only way you can get the windshiled just by luck if an autoglass shop that's been around for a while that might have 1 collecting dust at the corner of the shop some where. GOOD LUCK HUNTING FOR IT ....Hope someone get lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberquest Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 i was at his shop last night and we were talking about these. the problem is these are NOT coming from the states, so there is gonna be some frieght charges and what not. so he has to go thru getting them here then will need to ship out each one as needed. the problem is being able to get them, and make them a affordable so we can actually buy them. he is trying to gauge interest to see if its even worth the trouble to have these imported. believe me he not trying to make a ton of money on these hes just trying to make windshields avalible to us. but he is a business so yes he needs to make some money for his time and efforts. if he can find 10 people that want them then he can save on frieght having them shipped together so costs would be lower. if he has to order one here and one there they are gonna be more expensive. the frieght charges on ONE is around $125 so to order them one at a time would be very expensive.

Maybe start a list or a GP to see what kind of interest there is. I know I will need one soon so you can put my name on the list.

Technology Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Don't put your trust in the guy so easily, he's only got 11 posts, member since may of this year, and has no numbers to back up his posts. If he comes through with this, check your local glass place before buying, maybe shipping a windshield is more spendy than just getting one locally.

cyberquest Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 technology your a goof.....lol. if you read back a few posts i stated that i know greg personally, YES he only has a few posts here but i will put MY NAME behind anything he sells cause i will get to see it first hand before he sends it out. he lives 5 minutes away from me and i have known him a couple years now, i was at his glass shop all day yestersay working on his quest. and PLEASE do call your local glass guy so he can laugh uncontrolably at your request for a conquest windsheild......lol. greg wants to order in like 5 or so windshields but he just didnt wanna get stuck with them.

Burton Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) Watch out if its Viacom glass. We got a brand new one installed on Kate's car in MI in 06. About 6 months after we moved to TX the glass developed bubbles in the lamination all over the glass. After research, it's a cheap glass manufacturer and it just couldn't handle being in the TX sun. The place that installed the glass gave me a warranty, but they don't want to drive 1250 miles to replace it. If it's not Viacom glass I may need one to replace this POS glass that's in her car, as I doubt this one will pass inspection. That was $300 well spent Edited June 21, 2009 by Burton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
