3 Questions.First, Does 150-170 sound right for replacement of a front windshield? Ive never had to get it done just curious about what is right price.

Second, My Temperature gauge used to work at random. It would occasionally go up to about what i think the temperature was but later the needle would just fall back down. Now it doesnt even move. What would be more common cause of this?

Third, My tach doesnt work at all. its okay because i have a automatic anyways, i would just like to fix it. The needle just stays at 0 rpm. Could second and third be related? would it be better to just replace the entire wiring for both? Thanks Oh and i have 93 240sx 142K miles

150-170 sounds like a bargain.

Your temp and tach don't work, I'm taking a guess at a loose plug on your instrument cluster. If not, then you might have to check the temp sensor for your cluster. Then there's the sensor on your AT if it isn't the plug on your cluster, or possibly your cluster is beginning to feel the bite of age although your car seems a bit too recent to be feeling that.

On the temp gauge check the single wire plug[black] at the front of your intake manifold it has likely come loose on the lug to the sensor[pretty common] On your tac I would have to look at my service manual and give you an idea at to what it MIGHT be.
