I am probably one of them. Like mentioned before, I was in on the 995.00 deal. My windshield is sitting in the crate still. My windshield has delam, but i can still see out it just fine. Mine may go up for sale some day. Crate is just taking up space. Bought it in case the one in the car breaks or the delam gets real bad.

As an update, the windshields are still in Finland and available.
The price should be a little better due to the strengthening of the dollar compared with a few months ago. However costs aside, the biggest issue I foresee is still getting the individual windshields to the members who want them. A few regional drop off points would probably be the best way to go with individual members either picking them up, or making their own shipping arrangements.

So if anyone is still interested, post your intentions.

I need a large cut-out. Just had my nearly virgin, almost no delamination windshield damaged, and am currently negotiating with my insurance company. Based on other's experience, I'm cautiously optimistic that they will cover the expense for a ZR-1 correct windshield. If so, the problem then becomes one of availability.

IF you can even find one and someone will sell it not sure if they would go for the $2000+ probable cost for a perfect one. I have one, but its not perfect.

Man....I'd be all over that price now! I took a stone in mine last month and is really starting to look bad the more I look at it!

If the $995 deal ever happens again I'm in.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

I suspect if you tell your agent to find an OEM would take a long time and be $3k or so, they would gladly pay for an aftermarket one around half that. The trick is getting them here at a reasonable price, then getting them picked up at a location for people in the region.

Hi hp2burn good luck on your windshield quest.

Many moons ago I used to live at 712 Via del Monte --- How much do ya think that home would sell for now?

My Dad got a job x-fer to Detroit so instead of my surfboard for my b-day I got a pair on Ice Skates!!! LOL and learned all about frostbite on the toes too!

My parents sold the place in 1969 for a paltry 50K !

mine is delaminated around the edges. i think i will replace it with standard C4 glass. if it were a good price i would love an original, i am in Utah but will probably relocate to washington state next year.

I said I need one, but it is only for cosmetic purposes so a purchase is going to need to wait until my stocks start rebounding. It's original and has some delamination and pitting that's to be expected on a driver with age.

Thanks,

Jason

Don't need 1 yet here in NJ, but $1500 is to steep for me for when I do.
