When I had my screen replaced last year my trims and rubber seal were included and it was Autoglass.

Much appreciated, all!

Companies like Autofarce don't realise that there's communication between like minded owners on forums such as this! 

[Mr Gav]

I had asked them about the rubber seal before hand and they told me it was supplied, it seems to be a bit hit and miss though as some don`t have them supplied.

I can get hold of one just up the road for basically free/a pint, but what is more my concern is removing the one on my car, for fear of damaging the clips, and therefore the new one won't go back in. To be honest it's not sitting flush and 'hard' against the bodywork, there's a few gaps of a few mm as it is. Probably because it was bent out of all shape on removal.

After the crap we had with autoglass I will never let them near one of my cars again. In the end I found the MDs email on LinkedIn and fired of a snotty email, we did eng up getting our excess back.

I have absolutely no intention of paying my excess.

A lot of it depends on WHAT insurance company its going through. Some do and will pay for trim set. Most don't pay for trim set and is left to the windscreen company to pay for trims.

It does when they use crap pattern plastic channel which does not grip the rubber trim properly after which the rubber departs at speed....

Exactly!
