Default fookin windscreen....

got up this morning got in car to goto work and have a small crack at the center bottom of the screen, ill have to have a look and see what caused it, i feel it could have been a stone hit it on way home last night as it looks like its poss been hit with somin.

now, i have to check with my insurance company as i may have screen cover. but if not, what sort of price am i looking at for a screen fitted. and where is it from, are they country wide.

Cheers.

really appriciate the offer shaun, but i dont think they are they easy to get out, and its a long way for me to come with no 100% chance of getting it out without cracking it.

but if all else fails then i may just have to do that.

gonna give RAC a ring later as they bought out auto-winscreens, im an RAC member and may get some sort of discount (fingers crossed)

Cheers for all the replys guys.
