Each time I've had a windshield replaced I've had leaks so is there anything I should watch out for with these glass shops? Perhaps go to a body shop instead? This break happened on my nice 90,000 mile second gen. It's a nice clean truck well maintained so I want it done right. Are there ways to do the job better on a second gen that I should know about? What to ask etc.?

Just a heads up.  There are some (lack of better term) plastic nuts on top of the plastic grill thing between the hood and windshield.  Who ever does your work,  show them that they are all on there.  And if they break any,  or don't put them back... they will get paid when those plastic things are re-stalled.   Was a big hassle to replace those things , at least for me.

Thank you, I will watch for that. Wonder how the electronic dimming mirror gets hooked up, most likely a simple connection on top of the glass

.Better if I test to see if working before I get the work done. I drive it so few times I don't know.

I've had 5 windshields replaced at Safelite and never had an issue.  They come with a warranty against leaks and defects as well.  They even did a great job on my 67 mustang and my friends 79 Trans Am.
