    That’s pretty steep. You can do the whole thing in ceramic for $500 at the place by me.

    definitely don’t waste your money on anything other than ceramic. It keeps it so much cooler inside

    Lol. I probably will eventually but they did what appeared to be such a great job I'd hate to accuse them of doing something wrong and then finding out it was something unrelated. They didn't leave one speck of anything anywhere, no scratches or dings, successfully calibrated the TSS stuff, and transferred over both of my state park stickers. An all in all job well done (it appears.) I was hoping there was a magic fix one of you knew about but the little research I did pointed towards either sunroof drains or AC condensation dripping, neither of which are what's happening on my truck.

    If your truck didn’t leak before… it’s the one thing that’s changed.

    the only other thing would be the third brake light recall, but your truck is too new for that

    Don't know where you're located, but a shop in Eau Claire lists ceramic at 450 on their website.

    Auto Trim is the shop I was looking at. My wife had work done on her car there and she was happy with it.

    Mine was.. less painful than I expected. I went to another shop and it was an insurance claim to safelite.

    I assume in your instance they would put in another windshield unless they find something obvious they can seal up.

    Looks like there are at least 3 places in Wausau you could contact. $900 sounds pricey.

    You could run a hose over the seal of your windshield to verify that's the problem but as said, if that's what changed, there's your likely culprit.
