There were four of us and we started from the bottom. I am sure we did something(s) wrong, but at the rate I am buying gaskets I can't afford to gain that wisdom...

ThatGlassplace.net recommends PPG as they can't get Sekurit. They have installed them and like them. They did one two weeks ago and the owner immediately ordered another for a different 911 once he saw the fit of the first.

$390 installed if I supply the OEM gasket. Now I need to find a rebuildable dash...

Just thought I should update this thread. ThatGlassPlace.net is AWESOME. He did a great job at a decent price. His girl on the phone was super nice as well. Kudos!

Good to hear. Most guys look at old 911s, shake their heads and walk away. Glad to know someone can still do this.
