Re: Best place to buy glass

If you have a piece of the old glass any good full service glass shop that cuts laminated glass can cut them for you.

Bobs up I 5 in Oregon doesn't show separate vent glass but it doesn't hurt to ask. There is the possibility that because of labor rates it may be less espensive to buy from them and pay shipping than have it made locally. I don't try to second guess local prices vs online prices anymore. https://www.vendio.com/stores/bobscl...4317488/page=1

The Filling Station in Lebanan Oregon shows them for 30 bucks each. Your choice of clear or three levels of tint. https://store.fillingstation.com/sho...&searchtype=FT

30 bucks each plus extra shipping charges adds up though. Truth is if the local guys stay under 40 bucks a piece you are probably better off with them. I can see between 80 and 100 total cost for having them shipped.

Glass work is one thing that I hate do do myself and I'll pay the glass folks to do the install.
