<<Another lister mentioned it, and it has been said on here in the past that PPG is the OEM supplier of glass. You should be able to find a local place that will install PPG, and it should be much cheaper than the dealer's. Probably about in-line with the Triumph quote...>>
PPG has been one of the factory suppliers but my '01 C320's glass is all Pilkington. And, when it's pitted windshield was replaced this year (paid for willing by my insurance), the new one is a PPG. And, it's not quite like the original in that the mask is painted on the inside surface instead of between the two. Which means that my Valentine 1's suction cups won't stick to it, necessitating mounting it a bit farther to the right. At the top. All this excitement about OE puzzles me since none of these cars are or will ever be collector's items anyway and windshields are a maintenance item which need to be changed every few years for safety's sake. Angelo's reasoning is spot on. Looking through a new glass makes you wonder why you waited so long to change it. On the other hand, if you are cheaper than Ebenezer Scrooge................... RLE
