Auto Glass Tru-Vu
I called around to a bunch of glass shops in Pasadena, including two recommended by my insurance company, to replace my Prius's windshield. I also called Longo Toyota, just to see.
I was quoted ~$450 by all of the Pasadena shops (using aftermarket windshields), and $1380 by Longo (OEM windshield)! I found Tru Vu in Eagle Rock in these reviews and called them for an estimate. $218 plus tax installed! I asked them at some length about the aftermarket windshield -- the thickness, appearance, etc. They gave very straightforward answers, and given the reviews here, I went with them.
They has the windshield in stock. Indeed it looked identical, except it didn't say "Toyota" on it. They did a beautiful, seamless job installing it. I was in and out in about half an hour. The price was as quoted. They apparently do a lot of Toyotas, with referrals from two local Toyota dealers (!), which is why they had the windshield in stock.
Overall, an unusually good experience for a car repair, at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend these guys.
