My girlfriend managed to get me an employee discount at in-and-out glass for $185 otd, which her boss owns. They originally quoted me $240 including moulding, which was the cheapest I've found. Sorry guys, couldn't find cheaper (for those who are looking to save $$). In-and-out gets the job done, and I get what a pay for. The quality of the glass so far does not show any waviness or fog, though I can't say it would for sure stay that way for years to come, as I'm sure this is just cheap chinese glass.

I've had great service (and a low price) on both my S and my Element (total chip magnet) from Low Price Auto Glass on Commercial St. in San Jose.

I ended up getting it done there as well. I paid $180 lol.. But without the molding.. They didn't have the molding in stock on the Saturday I went so I took the chance and reused my molding.. The glass looks decent, too soon to tell the quality but so far it looks decent. Labor installation was a little sloppy though..

Youmna, If you like your car and it's otherwise in good shape, always go with OEM glass. List price at your local Honda dealer will be about $550 - just for the windshield. OEM seals, etc., more. Have a reputable shop pick it up and install it. You can buy discounted Honda glass online, though shipping could eat up a lot of the saving. Stevie Wonder could tell the difference between an OEM windshield and most of what's being recommended above.
