    Replacement windshield for 1972 911S

    Hi All.
    I took a stone to my original windshield for my 1972 S targa. It’s now turned into a large crack and needs to be replaced.
    I’m just north of Boston. Does anyone supply Porsche windshields? Any recommendation?
    Thx Gerry

    Stoddard has them. We get them locally from Pilkington who makes them as they own Sigla also. Use a Porsche front seal and trim. Takes 2 people to install it. You have to rope it in.

    We get them local from Pilkington as well. My only suggestion is to ONLY use Factory Porsche Rubber... Not the cheaper aftermarket... Put it in Dry and Rope it in with 2 people...
    with the Aftermarket rubber..... will take 4 times as long..... you will be worn out.... and then it will look terrible......

    Shipping costs should be less if you order from Stoddard which is in Ohio, and stick with OEM
