    Mygrant doesnt install, They are a wholesaler. They do not have one general number. The main corp number is for California so you will have to look up the number where you are.
    Here is their website:

    Make sure they clean the glass and body very good. Urethanes are not compatible with butyl and will not adhere correctly. The glass MUST be primed even if they say its primerless to glass. Do not let them glue over rust or butyl. Also keep in mind they will probably not give you a warranty. I never would warranty used glass installs. But then again I wouldnt install used windshields either.

    If it helps, removing the old glass yourself is really quite easy. I used a cable-pulled knife just like this:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Auto-Windshi...ht_4388wt_1181 Took about ten minutes.

    Then you can have everything cleaned and any rust dealt with ahead of time. Even though my GLHS is 99% rust free, there was some small issues in the lower corners of the channel where the A-pillars meet the cowl. I was able to treat the rust with phosphoric acid and paint it well ahead of the new glass going in. As for cleaning the channel itself, use a plastic scraper to remove the majority of the old butyl, and then scrub it clean with wax/grease remover.

    Yeah, Those windshields come out easy if they are factory installed. They used butyl back then and pretty much fall out on a hot day. Now if it is urethaned in thats a different story.
