    You should be able to get flat safety gl*** cut to needed size by local gl*** shop.

    I had my Model A windshield done twice during it's 140k life with me, at a shop near my home. Also had one door window replaced.

    Thanks Phil, just have to find one around here
     
  5. Well uh, i uh..... might know a guy. But gl*** is pretty much the same price wherever ya go. Get it cut within driving distance and you won't have to pay shipping ;)

  6. Flat gl*** should be able to be cut any gl*** shop, GOOGLE for the measurements...

    Price on packaging and shipping gl*** cost more than the gl*** UGH !

  7. I'll might add. Make templates of the gl*** that you need cut. I do it mostly because of chopped tops. But just make sure they fit in your car first. Then take them to your local gl*** shop, and have cut.

    Check the yellow pages for automotive gl***, I don't know what part of Virginia you live but you should be able to find someone within 50 miles of you.

    Here in Anderson,South Carolina there is at least 3 shops that cut automotive flat safety gl***. HRP
