We put a PPG windshield in our 1987 300SDL when we had it and it worked out okay. Have the installer be careful of the two rivets on the top corners of the roof that hold the molding down. I think they're aluminum and oxidize. When they remove the molding the rivet that holds the molding clip on snaps.
