Windscreen Replacement
 

My newly acquired tourer has developed a crack in the screen which seems to grow and grow. It is coming from a stone chip near the bottom corner, passenger side where the dark section of the screen at the bottom had been hiding the damage. When I first noticed it it was probably 2 in long, the next morning 4 in long and now probably more than a foot long!

Autoglass are coming in the morning to install a replacement so hopefully all will be well again afterwards. I am insured with LV and have to contribute £75 towards the replacement.

If I had seen the chip earlier and had a repair done it would have been free to me. So the moral of the story is to check regularly when cleaning and get the chips repaired before more damage is done!

Does anyone know how much a replacement screen costs these days?

I had a quote for a fitted rain sensor screen for £175 all in, £150 for plain screen.

That's good! When I had mine replaced last year, I looked around before using auto glass through insurance, and cheapest I found was 500 fitted for a rain sensor screen.

Prices were from an excellent independent supplier I have used before.
