[alfa] Canadian 164 owners and windshields

[C M Smith <cmsmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just called my glass shop and they no longer list the 164 windshield as 
available and say it is now a "dealer only" item. Ha. I didn't tell the 
helpful young lady on the phone that there are no dealers anymore!

Anyone in Canada having trouble, or success, sourcing a windshield? Mine is 
currently OK but here in Calgary we tend to lose  a windshield every 3-6 
years and this one is now 6 years old. I believe they eventually develop a 
condition known as stone magnetism if left in the car long enough.

Plus, I have the dreaded windshield header rust that needs attention and 
can't be fixed without pulling the windshield which you don't want to do if 
spares are not readily available.

I await input, at your leisure, gentlemen.

Cheers
