Dale, you're asking the wrong question. On the matter of a windshield, price is far less important than fit, quality of instructions and phone support if you get in trouble. I did a Search of this forum for the word "windshield", got several hits, and went to a thread called "Windshield R/R". There I found this old posting of mine:
"My mechanic and I installed an LP Aeroplastics windshield in my old 1969 337D about 3 years ago. Neither of us had ever done it before. It was straightforward but not easy. The instructions that came with the windshield guided us well, but told us to expect certain difficulties, especially in terms of getting it fully into the groove into which it goes, and gave us a phone number to call if we had the slightest trouble. Well, we did encounter the difficulty, we called and got incredibly personal and useful help over the phone. Specifically, we had been about to coat the windshield edges with something (can't remember what) to help it slide into the groove, and the LP guy said NO!, that had we done that we would never have been able to achieve a good seal. Bottom line, have an experienced person do it, or follow instructions to the letter and call LP for even the slightest thing."
By the way, a good seal is critical because your avionics stack is under the bottom lip of the windshield.
