Technical CRACKED WINDSCREEN - REPAIRABLE?

[bomeliv]

I don't do any car body work any more, don't have the space really and it can be very time consuming if things are worse than expected

I use to gas weld at work, feeding a filler rod into a molten pool, it's a skill that needs practicing or you loose it, but very satisfying

Have put a few written off cars back in the road, but places like car transplants now sell their written off cars, plus CFMOTO UForce windshield parts for more than you can just drive one away so now pointless, unless you own a body shop and go one stage further and get cars that need jigging it's in my opinion now a pointless exercise.

That crack is too long for a resin repair so it will need a full replacement. That crack is too long for a resin repair so it will need a full replacement. Get quotes from local independent windscreen fitters rather than main dealers as they are much cheaper. Also check your policy documents first as many insurance policies have a separate zero excess windscreen clause that won't affect your no claims bonus.

Hope it sorted by now over 6 months ago

Its not in the drver vision

Fairly easy repair for someone skilled enough and with the correct equipment




Here in the UK finding someone is the hard part

Just under £200 for someone to replace a screen on your drive

Claiming on your insurance depends on your excess and how much the premiums increase even though you will normally keep your no claims bonus
