Already? Check with the dealer? I was suprised when I had my cobra that it was just as cheap to have the dealer do it. Might want to check

This company comes out to your house. I had them change my Tacoma's windshield. Cost 225 dollars and took the guy 30-45 minutes. He did a good job. I think they have multiple locations.

Yeah, I get it. I had an SUV throw a rock into my Cobra's window. I almost left it alone. Looked like a bullet hole

Yeah, rock chips that turn into a crack do indeed suck. Happened to me and I got a quote from Safelite for $465. Although the dealer didn't quote me out for it, the service advisor said it would be something like $1200 or so.

The one guy in town that probably has the most knowledge of the glass industry in your area is your insurance agent. I'm sure he will be happy to point you in the right direction.
