Default ZR1 Windshield Replacement San Antonio

Anybody in the area know of a reputable business they would trust to have their windshield replaced?

Make sure you advise of HUD if you have it..

Yes I did a lot of looking around and am going to get the GM labeled glass with the HUD specification on it. Had experience with Safelite on a 2000 classic body Chevy and they had to come out again and replace it cause the first one leaked immediately. The first technician only removed some of the old sealant which is why it leaked and the second technician installed it crooked. If that's the quality I come to expect on a $1500 truck I sure as heck aren't letting them touch a $60k car.

Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with Safelite. I cracked the windshield of my 2011 ZR1 within 5 months of being new. That really sucked. But the Safelite tech who did the replacement in my carport over 4 years ago now was excellent as was his workmanship. No problems whatsoever to this day. The most expensive car he had worked on was a Mercedes model approaching $200k.
