Athabasca glass... hmm... I have a positive and a negative about them. It was canada day and my rear passenger window got smashed out by my little sister throwing rocks at my car and I was leaving for a road trip to Winnipeg on the 4th of July. Called Wildfongs, but they were closed until July 7th, so I went with Athabasca Glass. They pulled a miracle and managed to get a window shipped in and installed all within July 2nd and July 3rd, so I was absolutely impressed by them! Go to take my car home and start packing it up and I rolled all the windows down, blah blah blah everythings going great. Got the car all packed and I notice a storm is comin quick (crazy hail storm that night) so I go to roll up the windows and the one I just had fixed doesnt roll up...it made noises but it didnt roll up. so I squeezed it with my hands and pulled it up until it was closed. It was too late to call them and I was leaving for MB in the mornin so I just left the window alone. Trip was amazing so much fun, got home no problems other than my stationary window and I called them to see what they could do...I brought it down to them and they told me a wire had snapped and its gunna cost $250 just for the part... I felt like an ass and flipped out a little but damn guys own up to your own mistakes! They said they would try and help with the cost of labour... and I know for a fact with the car I have, installing the window is a little tricky cause those wires can snap with just a little too much force of trying to fit in the tight little spaces (hence why I paid a professinal to do it instead of me breaking it) ::Rant over
