Default Anyone Know a Good Glass Place that Installs a Ford Windshield?

Driving home last night from work on the highway I heard a loud thud hit the windshield. Knew it had to have cracked the windshield but didn't see it at first so i was hoping I lucked out. I was wrong. When I exited off the highway, I saw the glass chipped about a size of a dime and starting to crack.



Anyone know a good glass shop that uses the Ford replacement windshield? I show the car at MCA shows so it is very important it is a factory replacement windshield.

Just sucks for I leave for Myrtle Beach in 3 weeks so I am in a hurry to get this done. Thanks!!

I believe Safelite Auto Glass can install original Ford glass. You have to specify that you want the ORIGINAL glass which is "CARLITE" glass - if you do not, they will install their own "brand". Any original Ford glass (from 79-current) will have the Carlite logo etched into it, as well as some manufacturing codes. Your local Ford Dealer also can service the vehicle and/or replace the glass w/ original Carlite. I will say this upfront though, be prepared to pay more for the original CARLITE than the aftermarket glass - both through an automotive Glass Co. and the Dealer.

Here is Carlite's site:

Thanks everyone!! I had Safelite all set up, but then found a glass shop local that did it for $50 less and used the Carlite glass. Exact replacement and looks great!! Avoiding highways with it now
