The VW/ZF (OEM) factory at $800.

Over $300 for a windshield?  I suppose perhaps if you bought it from the 
dealer. I got one for my daily driver at a junkyard for $50.

That would be wonderful, but actually I was thinking more along the lines 
of half that.

In any event, a list member is coming to look at it this weekend, and I've 
had two other inquiries about it since then.  I'll let y'all know if it's 
still available after that.  Basically, I just wanted to set the record 
straight.
