so my windshield finally cracked all the way across. and im thinking of having it replaced by Safelite. the quote i got online seems really cheap, 173.95. and im wondering why everyone else seems to be paying 200-350?

Safelite just did mine last week for $214.00. One piece of advice - check your car very carefully afterward. The tech was in a big hurry to leave after doing mine and I found out why the next morning. 2 inch long slice in my dash across the defroster opening. Local office and Corporate Customer Service have been very accomodating and I am dropping the car off today to get dash repaired. I got the impression that this is a very common thing for them to slice a dash. Just pissed me off that the tech did not have the decency to tell me he damaged it.

Mine came to at least $250 (my deductible). Of course, I'm about 80 miles from their office, which was convenient that they could do it in the parking lot while I worked.
Would have been cheaper if I dropped it off.

thats a pretty cheap price... do you know is safelite uses glass made from China? A buddy of mine has a shop and that glass from China always chipped/cracked easily.
