We're going to try one of those mobile windshield replacement services. Can't find their email at the moment ... but we were quoted $165 to replace our cracked Miata windshield. Not 100% if that was for the tinted version? Google windshield replacement

If you're just looking to fix a rock chip then Cruizers car wash on Tampa near Parthenia (Costco parking lot) has a guy that does good work. Tell him the fat dude with the stickered up teal civic race car sent you. ;)

For Mako... Cheaper the auto replacement glass is, often the lighter it is.... Old racer trick. ;)

Wait 'till you have to replace the C5 windshield that has the heads up display . You will be real unhappy. For that matter, the C5 rear glass with the imbedded defogger is hugely painful.

+1 for Safelite. If it's just a rock chip it can be repaired. Once it's a crack you'll need the whole windshield.

Best head up display because if you wear polarized sunglasses it's still readable. Rear defogger is something that can be lived without.
