After it was all done, I have to admit, it's more noticeable that it was before, but they say the cracking won't spread now. The guy that did the work had been with them 10 years and admitted changing the front windshield on an H2 was a major job and runs $465 without insurance. When I asked, he didn't know anything about taping down the plastic side pieces though to prevent them from rattling at high speeds. If I had to do it all over, I think I'd just go with a new windshield.

FYI, you can get a new windshield for $300 installed just about anywhere. It can be done in 30 minutes. Very easy to do as well. HAve done 2 or more each year for the past 5 years.
