Any auto glass shop can do it.....


My S-10 truck was about $200 installed for the new glass and they vacuumed out all the shattered stuff.

Just make sure they actually vacum up all the glass in the door or else you will hear rattling. Most of the time they get 80% of it and then spray some sticky stuff that makes the rest stick. Overall I'm not impressed with glass replacement companies. My dad's driver side window was smashed last year; Geico insurance sent out a company that damanged some of the trim pieces on the door pannel

If you can, watch them like a hawk during the replacement process.

Hope everything goes well. Did they steal anything valuable?

Punks out for kicks again.

This occurs county wide for some reason. Some years back, I'd parked at a buddy's condo complex and when I came back to the car (Not the Lex) the rear quarter window had been shattered by a BB pellet. Same with about 15 other cars on the street that night.

Glass cost me $50 and about an hour to install so I didn't bother with the insurance. The police wouldn't come out to take a report, that peeved me off more.

Was driving around my neighborhood and saw another car get battered too. Funny thing is that all the cars that have been screwed with are all toyotas and one lexus

Mike from pro auto glass fixed it and he did a pretty good job. Problem is my bro told me he hears rattling now :/ sigh sigh.
