Looking to get the windshield on my 4G replaced. I've been calling around to find OEM glass made by AGC Automotive or AP Tech. From all the research I've done, come to find out that AGC Automotive is the same as AP Tech.

The only issue is that of all the shops I've called around to, no one can find an AGC / AP Tech windshield in the Houston area. My second option is to go with PGW (formerly PPG) glass based on reviews I've read about it.

Any knowledge regarding the availability of AGC / AP Tech glass for a 4G TL in the Houston area is greatly appreciated.

I only know where to get aftermarket glass. I've had mine replaced with no issues.

I used Able Auto Glass years back to have my windshield replaced. They used AP Tech. They are on Almeda and South Loop around NRG. I would wait until Rodeo heads out of town though

Thanks guys... Figured I'd update this thread to help someone else in the future.

I had called a bunch of auto glass repair shops (including Able Auto Glass) to see if anyone could source AGC Automotive / AP Tech for this particular car (2010 TL), but no one could find one since it's not stocked with any of the local glass distributors in Houston. Only one shop (7 Stars Auto Glass) was willing to go above and beyond to see if they could even order the AGC/AP Tech glass through the aftermarket distributor channel. Seems like the AGC glass only comes in every once in a while, so it's been a tough find. The PGW (previously PPG) or Pilkington glass is in ample supply.

Looks like this situation is going to be resolved as the car is at the dealer now for regular maintenance and they've agreed to replace the windshield with the PGW glass for the same price I was quoted by one of the local auto glass shops. I think I'll take up the dealer on this as their work come with a 1 year / 12,000 mile warranty.
