I'm in the need of a new windshield. where can i get a good deal? also, i did a little searching for an alignment shop for my xj and my wife's civic. I found Bear's Alignment in loveland and Marlen's in Fort Collins. any seconds on those or other recommendations?

thanks

Marlen's did my alignment, no problems there.

Elite Auto Glass - 3509 S Mason. I've gotten my windshield replaced a few times by Elite, and had good service there.

Both do a good job. Marlen's knows a bit more about 4x4's.

Elite Auto Glass quoted me $146 on a windshield installed. I got the last one a lot cheaper, I guess they have gone up.

Had Elite put a windsheild in my 93 a couple months ago...cost 125 bucks and some change after tax...but that was with a military discount too. :laugh3:

They did a good job and only took about an hour.

I don't know how much Elite charged for my windshields - State Farm has a great windshield replacement policy. Apparently they figure it's better to pay for a replacement windshield than to have high-dollar claims because cracked and pitted glass impeded the driver's view...
