Title: Wanted Front Windscreen
Post by: zirk on 22 November 2018, 20:05:15

Ideally near ('ish) to me, can Travel to collect, can also remove or help to remove.

Ideally needs to be be a Rain Sense auto wipe screen, but thats a Hard Ask, so a standard one will do, I will modify the screen to suit.

Needs to be in reasonably nick, to aid removal, ir no cracks, Anyone got anything?

Is a secondhand screen really worth the hassle?
I was amazed at how much better the new screen was compared to the 190,000 mile old one; it was like looking through an open window.

Not worth the bother,  just as well have a bright shiny new one and let them do the work while you sit in the warm drinking hot tea and watching the telly  :y

Any screen is better than a trashed one :-\

If the broken screen is on a car which isn't insured, then a new screen will probably cost more than the car is worth.  ;)

Correct, all my cars are insured, but unfortunatly the type of Insurance I have cannot include Windscreen Cover.  :'(

As you say Ables, getting Quotes for a Rain Sense Screen, I could probably buy another two Omegas for that, but thats not really the plan.  ;)
