whiich replacement windshield is best?
I can get:
1. PPG
2.TORENTON
3. LOF
4.CARLITE

the SEKURLITE (spelling) stock is $207 without install. All of the others are right at $215 installed. I am leaning toward the PPG, because NOVUS is the installer. I called SAFELITE, and was told (rather rude) "that caaaar is not in any systems". So they are out. What do you think? Who replaced yours? Have you had good luck with thr new one. Which one is thicker, stronger, better?
Numbers two and three may be the same product from different suppliers.

I have a nice little ding in my windshield as well. I am going to get it replaced in the spring and I am wondering if I should get an aftermarket or stay with the stock?

My replacement two weeks ago was a PPG, and I have always liked and trusted that brand. Maybe because I born in Pittsburgh. My guess is that most aftermarket glass will outperform the OEM. Good luck!
