G2 Windshield Hunters

[mackzilla]

I just wanted to share a heads up with the community that need some glass repaired (or Daves' looking to create a stockpile). I recently cracked my windshield while tracking and decided to let Safelite see if they could find a replacement.

After about a week with no success, they contacted Chrysler today and they were informed that a "fresh batch" are being produced and distributed in June. I have dibs on one of those June 13th. If you need one I would start calling now.

Just wanted to see if you had the windshield installed.

Bad timing on my part, just paid 1.200 plus 200 shipping for a new OEM GTS windshield just 2 weeks ago

Now all they need is to start a run of headlights. For you guys. I have all those parts in my parts museum.

How big is your "parts museum"? Do you collect NOS viper parts for future use?

[Russ Oasis]

Crimson, check your PM.

Hallelujah! Now I don't have to worry quite as much about rocks on my windshield!

[dave6666]

That would be hoarding. Erry'one noes hoarding is wrong.

make sure they don't send you at RT glass by mistake, AND make sure its not broken in the box. BEFORE cutting your old glass out..... Ask me how I know...

dealer told me 20-30% of these, show up broken by fedex. safelite cut my old glass out, only to realize the part number sent was for an RT. Which looks identical... Until you try and install it. Its slightly smaller.

we used the VIN# (coupe) and they still send me an RT glass the first time.

the second time??? well, that one showed up cracked down the center.

What's the difference between the two. Antenna?

[Bluesnake]

Would you happen to have the part number for each. Just want to make sure I get the right one.

[dave6666]

Get a red one. Desirable and +75 whp.

I'll take it. With a side of salsa of course.

So you're off the feeding tube and pure oxygen? I really tried to kill you with that last care package. You're more resilient than I thought............

[aakviper]

Is the Gen 1 Viper windshield different?

[Bluesnake]

OK back to our normal programing. The part number I found for the GTS is 4897573AA. Can anyone confirm? Dave??

Doing a lot better now. My esophagus and other parts are healing well except for the scare tissue...

[mackzilla]

Hey guys, I didn't get installed yesterday as planned. I had to push my appointment out a few weeks because of some homeowner headaches.

[mackzilla]

Bump. Anyone else order? Mine's getting installed Wed. the 26th. I'll share pics when they're done.

[Bluesnake]

I checked with my local dealer I deal with and they told me i need to wait till the 25th to order one. I have it on my calendar.

[LifeIsGood]

I have a 2001 RT/10 and I'm looking for a windshield. Any tips on finding one (not used)?
