If you don't want to go through the insurance, Try an independant local windscreen service. They usually cost a fraction of the major ones.

My insurance excess is the same at £150,however the windscreen is separate from this and has no bearing on NCB and comes in at £60 excess.

Does pay to shop around if your excess is a touch on the high side
