Coming back from Dudley on the M6 stone hit the very left side of my windscreen and has put a nice 4 inch crack in it.

A Cost i could do without at the moment!

Cant feel the crack with my finger nails but will defo fail the MOT in December! another £65 Insurance Excess i reckon just before next MOT so long as it doesnt get any worse in the meantime.


I have put the tax disc over it as its bugging me whenever i look at it

I had a massive crack in mine back in November, unfortunately I wasn't fully comp so didn't have the fall back of an insurance excess. I was absolutely bricking it at the thought of a possible cost of replacement.

Managed to get an excellent condition screen for £30 second hand from the scrappy; paid a window fitter £50 to take it out of the scrap car and put it in mine - not a bad job for £80 really !!

I think that depends on whether insurance is paying and whether you get a pattern screen. (ignoring auto wipers)

I had one last week - spreading stone chip in line with vision

Just had one fitted on the DTi. They've fitted a genuine GM one (same as removed) presumably because of the rain sensor for the wipers....

The crack on mine went right across the screen from one side to the other

Mine has just cracked too. Right across the bottom. Im insured 3rd party, so has anyone got any suggestions for a cheap replacement?
