1993 164L. My son moved from CT to RI. His windshield had been cracked for all of the six years he owned the car, in CT. RI inspection failed him due to the crack which looked like an antenna wire right up the center.
He did not have insurance. We have a parts car. After reading previous threads, I removed the interior trim on the pillars, dash piece at base of windshield, center rear view mirror, wiper arms. An auto glass professional came to my house and removed the windshield from parts car on a warmer day last week, 45 degrees F. He left the chrome trim on the perimeter on the windshield. Then he installed the windshield in his shop. The windshield heater wires were damaged, so the heater won't work. The installation looks good, hopefully it won't leak. The auto glass guy charged $240.
He also failed due to outer tie rod ends, I put those on.
