windshield replacement

[wrb]

I have a Hi-Tech Motorsports 427 Cobra and the windshield has cracked. Does anyone know of a shop that can replace this windshield? I am in the Los Altos - Palo Alto area, but am willing to travel (San Jose to Belmont) to get this job completed.

Thanks for your help,

Finding someone to do the installation will be easier than finding the replacement glass. I contacted three glass places (like Safelite) and they all said they would not be able to do it unless I found the glass. Well, heck, after finding it and getting it here, it's a simple task - two or three screws on either side upright to remove the frame and glass. Assuming the frame itself is OK, it's not too difficult to disassemble the frame and replace the glass. Just remember to remove and replace the screws and brackets in exactly the same spot they were originally. Anything longer and you'll touch the glass and crack it. Oh, I forgot - remove the visors and mirrors from the frame before removing the glass.

I got my glass from Shell Valley but you should check compatibility. They have both glass and glass/frame.

Good Luck!
