Default repop dated glass

Who sells the best repop dated glass for a 68 camaro. I have purchased some from Pilkington in the past and it was spotted in the sunlight. Is OEM better? or all the same??? thanks John

Pelkington is garbage! Friend installed it in a '67 Camaro and the door window curve is not even close........junk.

Some guy in Chicago, Paul's Auto Glass is suppose to be good.

I purchased mine for my Chevelle (clear glass) from PS Auto Glass. They dated it for me also.

I have had very good luck with PS Auto Glass. Quick turnaround even when dating. The spotiness in the glass will be in everyones as far as I know due to the federally mandated process when the glass is produced.

I just put OEM dated glass in my 1970 Camaro and it looks great.
The shop had no complaints about the fit and the trim looks fine. I had to pay up for it, but I'm glad I did.
