Windshield Install

Called the stealer today about what parts are available to install a windshield with factory parts.As anyone may or may not know,the aftermarket guys will spluge a big bead of butyl and slap the glass against it and cover up the mess with one piece of rubber.
You may have read that I took the glass out of my '93 Aero because of a couple of bubbles on the A posts.Well.a tremendous rust situation was lurking beneath.This was an aftermarket replacement with one rubber and did not do a very good job of keeping the water out.
The factory install kit at my local dealer in Central Western N.J. will cost 270.00 with a discount of 10%.
Consists of:a left and right rubber
A final trim piece
various spacers and clips and nuts and bolts
Totaling 270. but it is the factory way with the parts guy checking with a service tech and recommending a thin bead of butyl.
So after I finish the rust remediation(using POR-15 products)it's time to order the kit.I will go with after market Sekurit glass for 225.00 rather than Saab glass for 688.00.So that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
