Plus those (like myself) who'd put one on the shelf as spare.

I know from other collector car projects that individual glass solutions are being produced from from 7-10 sets, depending on the manufacturer. So, why wait for GM?

Though I need to say that I have no personal experience in ordering bespoke windshields...

Matt,

I am halfway talking through my a*s, but I will say it anyway. From a guy who I heard did this once before it is a very costly venture and investment with the logistics involved, as well as all the other red tape and bureaucracy to import from overseas. I do not think that one could find a US manufacturer to make these. The ones that zr-1windshield.com once sold were from Saint-Gobain who made the GM replacements. I like them better than the LOF I have seen despite those are the originals. I heard that someone it doing another run so hopefully you will hear something soon.

At $2000+ each, not a lot of members are willing to fork it up to replace their delaminated windshields. To be honest, I do not know it I would have if my insurance company did not cover the replacement. I guess I was really lucky as many seem to say not possible with their insurance company.
