ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

          Its a pain at night with all the lights reflecting everywhere aint it? Mines been like that since I got it. You cant buff it out like tail lights, since you cant really heat up the glass to get it to blend together like the plastic on the tails.

          The one thing I have wanted to try is that stuff they show on TV. Its the stuff that fills scratches on glasses. Seems like it would at least be worth a try, but I never went out looking for it. I am sure walgreens/eckerds would have it, maybe i'll have to remember to go get some and see how it works.

            It should be around 125-160. They got companies out there that will come to your house to install it.

              open up the phone book, and look for auto glass in the yellow pages. hopefully you'll come up with a few places in your area that can do the work.

              write the numbers down.

              call the numbers.

              get some estimates.

                        the windshield itself will cost between 200-300 for a new one, so i doubt its 125-160...and then installation will be quite a bit as well.
