Re: [Chrysler300] Bubble Windshield info - new / repros

["Roger Schaaf" <obiwan10@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had Timo Tanskanen replace my windshield(it was some out of the USA
product and was delaminating on the edges) with one of his manufacture.  Not
only is it of top quality(clear, proper tint, no distortion) but he also
created/built a proper gasket/molding that looked and fit far better then
one that I had purchased from a third party manufacturer 15 years ago.  He
has glass or can make for most all Chrysler products and other makes of
autos.

In the past there was chatter about "South American" reproduction
windshields not being "right".

Was it an issue of not fitting?

--or is there just a lesser/incorrect curve?

Many thanks!

Subject: [Chrysler300] windshield instalion c-300


I was going to have a windshield installing party on Tuesday,  but by
strange and good luck someone hooked me up with a pro. Thank goodness they
did because between me and my friends,  we would have surly broken it. I
hope I don't bore you with how he installed it, but it was a learning
experience.The only thing I did was to help place the glass on the lower
rubber. He then took a suction cup and shoved the windshield pretty hard to
the right side. He then laced open the center and left lower side. Using the
suction cup again, he centered the glass in the bottom track. Using his
plastic stick, he alternated from side to side until both A pillers were
laced up. As he got near the upper corners, he would occasionally lightly
smack the glass and you could see it move in slightly. Then all of a sudden
as he sweped his plastic stick under the upper rubber, the windshield sucked
inward as though there was vaccume in the car. Total time on glass was one
hour. trim time was another 1/2 hour. He made it look easy. Now were having
a ' look at the new windshield' party. Thanks to those who help with
suggestions.  John Peabody
