Isn't "bullet proof" kind of an all or nothing proposition? ;-)

Re: Pitted Windshield
Thanks for the input folks. I don't think I'll go the insurance
company route, I'll just wait until I can't stand it anymore and
replace it.
I installed a rear window in an F150 once and it was pretty easy.
Just got to get some nylon clothesline and have the WD-40 handy...
I'm thinking it can't be very different.... and the glass is smaller!
(just gotta get the damn Virginia stickers off in one piece- County
and Inspection)
Thanks again.
