I don't know of any shops that do windows, you may want to see who your insurance company recommends. I realize it probably isn't covered by your policy, just most insurance places have a recommended shop.

Your best bet on the column is to replace the whole thing. Grab one out of a junk yard and swap it.

werd... try a local junk yard.. its easier then u think.. so dont rule it out... who know. u may find a windshield there in good condition as well now t take it off/install it will be the tricky part... but i would jsut call around.. who knows.. u can get 1 of those places and get 12 free dinners

If you have a tilt column you should be able to buy rebuild kit for it for like $50, [if its a straight column Good luck] (my car was broken into, i contacted everyone i could the dealership, NAPA, UPullit J-Yards no one had a Non-tilt Column rebuild kit) yea and the thieves were so dumb they couldnt steal the CD player :rockon: There were a few j-yards that had the rebuild kit, but Chevy should have them as well. that is if your into taking it apart. fairly simple considering you dont have to yank the column.

If your coming to california.. Sacramento area, I'll do it at our shop no problem. If they busted up the outter shell of that column then your not gonna buy a 50 dollar kit to fix it to my knowledge.
