Well long story short my windshield cracked due to a rock thrown by my 2 year old. I called around and got quotes from repair shops and most are around the $315 range. The crack is getting worse. One shop was $200 installed and an extra $80 if the moldings were bad. What is an average repair cost for a bonneville windshield?

Assuming you only have basic liability insurance? $315 seems spendy, I think i paid 200. Just look for reviews on the company you chose, the guys that did my dad's truck were junk. Make sure you get a PPG or high quality brand installed.

I had my PA windshield installed for $232, and that was with HUD. $315 is way too much.

I thought $315 was pricey as well. I just called a place and they gave me a price of $195 installed. I'm going tomorrow to check the place out and see their work. They also use PPG. Hopefully the work is done nicely so I can save a huge chunk of money.

Bad part is you won't get an EZCool windshield...

But the last price you go was better.. I had the windshield on my 91 Bonneville done for $189 and they came out to the house to do it..

Just recently I had that same company replace the monster windshield on my Pontiac Transport( Dustbuster ).... But I did that one under my insurance...lol... That windshield was Pricey....LOL
