Like Jay said, everybody gets their=20
windshields from the same suppliers.
I am not necessarily a fan of VB but I don=E2=80=99t=20
blame them for my cracked windshield.
I bought 2 on a really cheap close out sale
back in the =E2=80=9890s. They were VERY well
packed as someone pointed out recently.
