That's fine, but in the US, you're not going to get Starla exhaust components, Pilkington glass, or Sachs suspension parts, as the "house brand" when you're buying parts. You'll get PPG glass, or someone you've never heard of, for a windshield. If it was the same folks that made glass for Saab, sure, but the only way to get that here is from the dealer. Been there, done that. Several times. It should go without saying that not all third-party glass is equal. But what would I know, I've only had two cars with crap replacement windsheilds.
