Windshield shops?

[Nue]

Anyone know of any reputable windshield shop in the SoCal region, specifically, the San Bernardino/Los Angeles region? Seems like my only choices are aftermarket but I'd like to get something close to OEM (Saint-Gobain Sekurit) from a good vendor without paying the ridiculous cost stealerships are asking.

well if you have full coverage for insurance, make sure to find out if windshield repair is covered.

if not, you should still be able to go to your insurance provider to find approved shops. (should be reputable if your insurer lists them)
Only ones i know are in my area 1+ hrs north of you. GL meng.

Insurance doesn't cover it outside of an actual incident (major accident) without raising my premiums so I'm just trying to find someplace and paying it out of pocket.

I'm hesitant to choose a shop at random as windshield replacements are brute forced and they tend to leave scratches/dings/random rubber peelings everywhere, typically by shops/people who don't really give a s*** and just want to get it done and over within the fastest time possible.

I had Safelite come out and replace the windshield in my MX-6 a couple years ago...no problems, no mess, professionally done in the parking lot while I was at work.

Yeah I was looking into Safelite too, thanks for the response.
