Windshield

[xorbital0]

Hey people. Can anyone refer me to information about replacing or repairing my windshield? i was only doin 90 on the freeway and it was struck by a rock, or a bullet, i donno, but it delivered 2 large cracks. I'm assuming its not cheap, but any information would be appreciated, thanx

It costs $500 to have the windsheild replaced. Someone smashed the hell outta mine last halloween.. Call several glass places and get estimates. They come to your house and replace it on the spot. Luckily I had glass coverage so the ins. co. handled everything.

i had insurence on my glass so it was free... but i did see a bill, it was about 600 bucks for a new windsheild and install, and all extra's

Depending on where you live, your state ussually requires the insurance co. to replace it free of charge.

at least thats how it is in my state.

DAMNNNN 500 i can get all the windows in the car changed. My windshield is cracked right now, i got an estimate on a new one installed, it was like 120.
I live in NY. i dunno how much it will cost anywhere else.

So we have ranges of $120-$600. Bottom line- grab a yellow pages and call around to several glass places to get estimates.. I really hope it is towards the lower end, but I know for a fact the bill was $500.

Hoping i can get it low, but i know i'll end up getting ripped off somehow, urban NYC repair shops are ruthless.... its all about research

insurance: 100$ for aftermarket glass, and I think $150 or $170 for OEM BMW with the mirror holder thingy already attatched.

Of course, I went with the OEM, stright from germany.

(I hit a goose dead-on at about 105 MPH, I presume it's guts were turned into sphagetti-oes)

same deal im going to get once I get that kind of money to spend on my windshield (the least important fix right now). They come right to the car, fix it, and they're on their merry way.
