I have had favorable experiences with PPG. That is the manufacturer of the Honda OEM windshield. Their glass is used exclusively by our windshield subcontractor at our dealership and they do make a front windshield for the Vanagon. I priced one about 6-8 mos. ago at somewhere around $85.00. That was my cost through the dealership so anyone else might pay around $100.00. I have never seen any problems with clarity, defects, etc. In most cases a windshield is only as good as the installation. You may want to have it professionally installed so someone will stand behind it. If it were me I would probably spend the extra $ for the factory gasket since aftermarket gaskets are not always an exact fit. YMMV.
