I just received a call again from my glass co and they just received my windshield and based on my vin # its indeed the correct one (FINALLY)which was recommended by my dealer,so everything looks great for friday morning,the only concern that i have is the procedure,they said it takes about an hour for the install but will take (four hours)drying time with a total of five hours,has anyone waited so long????.  Z
Yes...and the glass that was just replaced on my Mack had to cure for 24 hours.

Got a 207lb 32" crt tv in the basement. Wife wants to get a monster for the living room and move the little 55" into the basement. I don't look forward to lugging a tv upstairs that weighs more than me.

Sweet swap but they should've used a 2.3....

I had the same problem. Had a 36 inch Mitsubishi in the basement and I can't even remember the weight but that monster was heavy. Worked fine so I found someone to give it to as long as they picked it up. They were happy as they grunted up the stairs and I'm happy it's gone!  Win/Win

Larry, I had the same issue except no one wanted mine.  I ended up taking it apart and hauling it out in pieces.  Even the picture tube was a heavy beast, though!

Yes Bruce I too found disposal can be expensive. After the concrete Mitsubishi, I bought a 50 inch rear projection Sony that started misbehaving after a few years. Sony accepted a big chunk of responsibility and gave me a large allowance toward a replacement 55 inch LCD. I had to dispose of the rear projection on my own though. I had to pay my trash hauling company $50 for a special trip and the set had to be curbside. At least it was not heavy. lol
