From my experience, this is one thing for a Vanagon which can be cheap.  A
few months ago, I shopped around for a new windshield to find a range of
prices from $125 to about $600.  Just specify LOF or PPG glass and do some
calling.  I ended up paying $132 out the door.  They would have even come to
my house for that price, but I thought with the inclement weather I would get
a better job at the shop.  When I went to pay for the work, the secretary at
the glass house said she had given me a quote for the wrong van and the
Vanagon was a bit more.  Even before I could begin to demonstrate how
obnoxious I could be, she said she would honor the original quote.  The
difference was 5 bucks!
