Re: windshield
I am interested to see what you ended up doing. I'm trying to make the same decision but I can't find a windshield without the band at the top

Re: windshield
It was this same reason that prompted me to put a good USED windshield in my truck. Look around, this could be an option for you as well.

Re: windshield
I wouldn't use XYG just because it's Chinese. I try to avoid putting Chinese parts in my American vehicles, although it's hard sometimes when GM only sources a part from China.
