Default Windshield replacement

Any good places to get the windshield replaced. Only original Honda glass. Is the dealer the best option?

In San Gabriel Valley area. Thanks!

Ace Auto in Paramount. They specialize in JDM parts at their other location, which I'm not sure where it is.

I pay for OEM glass under my insurance. Safe-Lite replaced my windshield last summer with Honda glass. It took a couple of weeks for them to get the glass shipped to them, but it is definitely Honda glass and I'm pretty happy with the job they did.

I have 116,000 miles on a 2005 and my windshield is pitted bad, looks like a sand storm hit it.
I was wondering if Honda glass is ever so thinner than aftermarket PPG? couple years ago I was thinking of replacing my W-shield
and is seem to be $200 PPG vs $800 honda

anyone else have horrible pits on their glass?

Mine looked the same when I bought the car with 26k on it.. It current has ~50k and it's really hard to see when the sun is shining on it. I've never seen another car with such a soft/shitty windshield.

I am going to have Honda dealer install OEM windshield next week. Will tell you how it turns out.

I have a lot of pitting on my current glass. Annoying at night.

I never realized how bad my old one was until it was replaced!
