D52E Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 When looking for a 510 windshield you have a couple of options. Each of these has pros and cons - mainly cost vs. quality. 1)The most expensive option would be a New Old Stock part that someone stashed away. 2) A second option would be used piece. 3) The third option would be new aftermarket Chinese glass (I was able to get one in southern California a couple of years ago for about140). I have yet to instal it so I can't comment on the quality and fit. Good luck. Link to comment

Boaty Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Just out of curiosity - I've never had any luck finding a windshield from any glass shop here in Southern Oregon, even after a week of phone calls to distributors. These chinese replacements you speak of, where are you finding them? Have a distributor and part number? Mine is toast... as in, if I drive into the sun I can't see anything except white/bluish fog. And at night? Everything has a moon-ring like halo. Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Yuma. Where are you bro, ima need one in like a month We'll be driving out to Buckeye in August..I could probably take it out with me (might be taking a bumper to someone in AZ also) Just out of curiosity - I've never had any luck finding a windshield from any glass shop here in Southern Oregon, even after a week of phone calls to distributors.

D52E Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Here is the part number I purchased a while ago. I have not installed it yet so I cant confirm it is correct - only that it was sold to me as a 510 windshield. Link to comment
qwik510 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I called safelite and they have it for 230 Safelite usually quotes a price including installation. The gasket might be extra. Check to see. If that includes the install, it is a decent price for sure. Link to comment
