Whats the best way to get one?

Smash it with a hammer and claim off insurance?

How does it work on the insurance thing BTW, as I've never claimed for one before. Just noticed I got a large crack spreading across the n/s.

Think you pay £60 or so, but you dont lose no claims, as its under windscreen cover (if you have it).

Makes the car look much more shiny with a new windscreen :D

Yeah, I was hoping a crack would appear in mine. On a clear sunny day it looks like there's tree sap on the screen. I assume it's the original screen and that it's just full of tiny pock marks that have appeared with age.

just call autoglass out or whoever your insurance company say to use... ded easy, they come to your door or work and do it for ya, 15mins it takes um, u pay um 50quid and thats it... insurance company pays for the rest, doesn't affect ure ncb or anything. always make sure u get windscreen cover, specially if u live up north, lol :D

Just had mine replaced at the weekend by RAC Autoglass. Cost me £50 which i pay to them, as people have said doesnt affect your NCB. Takes them about 30 mins and then you have to leave it for about 2 hours to let it set properly. Job Done :D

you can use cutting products, to burn the layers of filth of the top layer of the windscreen.

good as new provided theres no chips in it :D
