I agree, the Saab original windshield gasket is likely to be still in fine shape and is surely superior rubber to any replacement. So, what would Safelite charge just replacing the glass and reusing the gasket?
What really worries me about your story is the local shop's word they'd need to hit you with a $200 to $400 shipping charge just to get the glass in. I hope that's not yet a widespread phenomenon and not what we're coming to.
I have heard that the auto glass replacement business is dog-eat-dog competitive and wonder what you'd find if you tried another shop or two.
And if you are so far off the beaten path that there aren't many local choices, what would you find from auto glass shops in the nearest metropolis?
