Got a couple leaks in my front windshield and also need to have new moulding clips installed (clips came out with the moulding when it was stripped to paint).
A local Mustang resto shop quoted me $650 to do it, which seems crazy to me! I had the windshield installed before at a glass place and it was like $160 with new glass (of course, it has leaked since it was installed).
He said it was $650 because it takes the better part of a day and a half to do. They did guarantee no leaks, although I'd think any place that installed glass would do the same.
What's the verdict - out of line or reasonable?
I haven't tried going around the windshield with sealer because I haven't figured out how to get the clips in without damaging the paint. If I can surmount that hurdle, then this is something I'd consider...
Any tips would be appreciated!
