thanks for the info. good points. i called NPD parts (because they're down the street from me) and asked about their 'green tinted w/ blue sunshade' glass for $145, they said it is 'overseas' so i guess that is not the good ones. Heartbeat city is another place not too far, they have both, overseas and USA glass. I believe the USA glass is $179. that is kindof pricey for me but it sounds like that is the best route. I am going to call around the 'discount' places as mentioned above to see if I can get some PPG glass for cheaper. maybe i'm making a big deal out of this but it makes me nervous, especially because i'm installing it myself, i can use all the help (better fit) possible. plus i would always prefer 'USA' over chinese stuff (i worked in china for 1 month in the auto parts field, and that place has a long way to go (alot of dirt floors) !!
