Default Recommendations for glass shop

Does anyone know a glass shop that has experience replacing the rear window seal on a 1987 911 Targa?

Thanks,
David

If no one on the board can recommend a shop that has experience, I would call the folks at thatglassplace.net. They did my front and I seem to remember him saying he had done 911 rear glass as well.

Hmmm, most glass shops have no idea what they're getting into with a Targa rear seal/glass replacement.. its a lot different from a coupe and can be between 3 - 6 hours depending upon experience and how well you can get the seal to cooperate. Some days better than others.

Dave, you have a pm.

Thanks everyone! I have someone lined up, and if it works out I will provide the contact info should anyone else need a window seal replaced.

Regards
