Hmmm..

A lot of times the dealership will outsource the job to someone. Thats what I've been told.

glass: Pilkington front, FY rear.

I would use OE glass too if money wasn't really an issue. I would also have someone other than Safe-Lite do the job. Preferably someone who has had past experience with Mercedes windshields. Safe-Lite did a good job on the front, but poor on the back. They struggled with installing the chrome strips. First gen 126 strips are more difficult to work with it seems than the later stuff, especially the 124 stuff.

The car they worked on was more-or-less a daily driver "beater" as it were. In the future I'll go with someone else more experienced. I'd like my chrome strips to sit properly.
