    As some of you know I need a new windshield. Been looking for a used one, but no luck. I have decided to buy new. What do you guys recommend? Is one manufacturer better than another? JC Whitney or Walck's, or . . . ? All the prices seem similar, approximately $150.00. At this point depending on the recommendations here, the deciding factor will be shipping costs.

    Thanks, you guys are great!
