Hi, Group!

Jim Combs, in Salt Lake City, Utah USA.

After many months of searching for a windshield, Brian Holm was able to acquire an original bronze one for my 1982 604TD. He had it shipped to Salt Lake City a few weeks ago. Safelite Auto Glass performed the installation. Before Safelite would do the work, I sent my 604 to a body shop (MAACO) for rust removal around the windshield. This was a common problem with the 504 and 604's of the time. I bought the chrome windshield clips; Brian sold me the missing chrome pieces which had come off in a wind storm in February. After MAACO had ground the superficial rust off and POREd (brush-on sealant, epoxy-like paint) the surrounding area, Safelite did the install.

The results: WOW, my 604 is very quiet! I've performed some sounddeadening  measures to the 604, but now the difference is quite obvious.

No more water-leaks behind the dash during rainstorms and car washes!

No more scratched, pitted glass, either.

Thanks to all that wrote with advice and recommendations. But, Brian Holm at Parts for Peugeots in Vermont is now my primary source for parts. Only through his due diligence is my 604 "waterproof" again!

Many thanks,

James Combs, "Jim",
