Needing a windscreen!

[Derek]

So its a fine dry day, went to take the windscreen out to clean the seal up and put new sealant in, and straight away it develops a hair line crack where I start pushing the seal over the lip.

Im 3rd party fire and theft so I don't have windscreen cover.

Auto glass are wanting over £400
Auto glazing over £300

What are my options? Second hand? Any cheap places?

I can fit it myself, just need the glass.

£30 Derek. I'm in Derbyshire. I won't courier for obvious reasons.

 

[Derek]

For bugger sake, long way for a screen :/

Where are you Derek?
Few of us meeting up at lincomb on the 19th this month for Ben coming over from Oz. Maybe someone could get it closer to you?

 

[Derek]

Aberdeen in Scotland, probably be £300 in fuel :/

Jezz - screen's don't start me on screens.... broke my original screen (ahem wont say how as very embarrassing and VERY expensive) second screen fitted but leaked and I never thought it was fitted correctly, so asked for it to be taken out and refitted with new rubber etc.. cracked.. bugger. New one sorted on insurance, refitted, cracked - another one fitted free by glass people... yeahhh - then the corners de-laminated. Moaned - new one fitted - cracked another one ordered fitted - cracked - Glass people were getting REALLY pissed by now - (so was I) so they sent their top guy and 'his mate' - screen fitted okay all magic.... then went over to Morocco - got a bloody chip in it... and it started to crack from the chip... agrahhhh - new one required - replaced sorted on insurance (it's called getting your monies worth) - same two guys came out refitted without a problem... all been okay since.... so all in all you have my sympathy...

i was on the M1 the other day and passed a courier specializing in Mirror deliveries www.fragilistics.co.uk. They might ship the screen or i have read that ANC will take glass - not cheap but less than round trip fuel.

All down to Karl packing it nice and safely.....

Jed, no matter how well I packed a screen the idiots would bust it. Had it far to many times in the past I just refuse to send them now.

Insure it for the value of a new replacement and it will get there .

When I fitted mine I was getting uncomfortable with the amount of pressure applied to the corners - applied a smear of silicone grease around the rubbers and it just dropped it
