I am remembering that when I had my windshield replaced on my old YJ it was
only $250.

Re: Strange? Question...
Thanks to all for the input.
I'm going to check with the CROOKS called my insurance company and see
about glass replacement and what it'll do to the premiums.
Otherwise, I am going to stick with the plan of trying the passenger
side wax application to see what happens. I'll let you know what
happens!

Re: Strange? Question...
The owner of a work van I sometime drive used Rain-X washer fluid for a
while. It looked to me about as useful as using Crisco on the windshield.
