Here's the wierd part. It was kind of dark in the garage and I was using a drop light to work on the shifter. I got all done with it and went in the house. A little later the wife and I were getting into the car to run errands. She gets in before me and says "Hey, your windshield's broken!" "Huh?" I look at it - sure as s_ _ _. So I start looking at he garage ceiling to see if a piece of acoustical pop corn had fallen off. (We have that problem in the place we're renting.) "Nope, the ceiling's in tact", like that that stuff would have been heavy enough to do any damage anyway. "So how the heck did the windshield crack?" At that point I vaguely remember banging my elbow against it when removing the shift knob. Absolutely no pain in the elbow. Some people say "No brain - no pain." Maybe that's the problem. Anyway, I can't believe how easily that thing cracked when hit from the inside-out.

The new windshield is really nice. Hope it doesn't leak.
