Inside and outside was spotless, and they even transfered the original mercedes sticker over to the new glass. Top notch company to say the least!!!

You've got a glue in windshield, the original poster uses a rubber gasket.

Windshield installers are a lot like painters, the individual is critical to getting a good job, not so much the shop.

Ask around, get a reference.

I've had some real butchers from national shops rip up my cars.
