Windshield repair/resin fill in the SGV area?

I was just wondering if anybody knew of a windshield repair shop in the SGV that doesn't charge an arm and an leg. ie - I had my windshield repaired 3 yrs ago for $20 (mobile service) and now I have to get my sister-in-law's windshield filled. I contacted Safelite, the ones I used 3 yrs ago, and they wanted $99. Holy smokes 4x more in just 3 yrs? Oh hellll nah! It's a nickel size crack and needs a resin fill. Oh and their reason for the price increase was due to the increase in gas...but I told her I'd be going to their shop, not mobile service.

Thanks guys and gals.

Got my whole windshield replaced there and haven't had any issues. It has been over 6 months. Besides they give u lifetime warranty. Price was very good too.

This is in SFV

I bought a diy resin window repair kit from walmart for $5. It came out new, but I had a bulls eye crack from a pebble. Not as big as a dime but it worked for me.

^ IMO..as long as the refill prevents the crack from further splitting, i'll check it out. Safelite repaired my windshield and it's still visible from the inside.
