[Peugeot-L] Re: 82 604TD: Help! I need to locate a new windshield for the 604!

I think I can find you a new windshield, Jim. I found two of them a month or so ago. Not cheap, around $200 each plus shipping by truck. I have the trim pieces. Unless you really really want that shiny trim, I would advise against it, as the clips displace the urethane sealant, increasing the probability of leaks at the clips. Glass installers have a universal kit that works well and looks good, but is flat black.
