Re: windshield/glass
Wrecking yard for the sides and back. Glass shop for front. Make sure you get one with the antenna wires in it. Superior brand rubber.

Re: windshield/glass
just to mention
depending on the year, some older side glass is thicker,I noticed switching (89 thinner,) then the (78 thicker) I replaced . not sure if this applies to windshield too,or seal used

Re: windshield/glass
I tend to stick with local windshield companies. They are pretty darn cheap and they get to fuss with the installation, plus they typically warranty the windshield for defects etc.
