I had considered fitting my own screen (I have fitted bonded ones in the past and can get a loan of the kit) but, its cheaper to get it done on insurance.

Well, when they offer to re-fit it, send the bloke off to the pub while you do the job properly using his kit.  

Everyone's happy.

Yes its my one.......should have checked it before now but its not been a priority.

Just checked it again...........not convinced the bottom edge is bonded at all as you can flex it from the inside!

Perhaps if you haven't heard back to them, it's time to tell them that you have safety concerns and are going to get the car inspected... [smiley=evil.gif]

Looks like you aren't the only one. I knew i'd seen something the other day when I was looking to see if there is anything available to polish out the scratches on my screen.

I just phoned them again......

Got put through to the local depot and have got to take my car to them on Wednesday morning to get it put right......and this time it better be right!

But, even then, the guy on the phone wasn't realy listening because he started to talk to somebody else mid conversation.

Not happy, NOT HAPPY AT ALL!

During the repair did you stay with them...

This summer changed mine by the opel service from a stone crack..

Require two man at minimum.. And the previous insulation material

must be cleaned very carefully and totally..Take many hours and car

stayed there one night ..No problems after..


ps: even if it was new model windscreen the quality of glass was not

same the original..Looking from sideways was visible the quality not

very good..

I wasnt there as I was at work.....

I did notice a few extra scratches but, how do you prove it!

And only one person, god knows how he lifted the screen in and out as they are dam heavy on an Omega!

1200 grid sandpaper with water (firsty try only in one corner to

estimate work required.Dont sand too much).. And use only on

damaged parts..

And long hours of polishing with machine using G3 after.. (machine is

must handwork nearly impossible)

Not easy..

if possible try to be there..Really they can scratch the car during the

cleaning of old insulator..And job must be done paralel with two persons absolutely..Even I helped them ..

Gonna take some pics this evening of the 'handy craft'.....

Might well pop the scuttle cover off so I can see the bottom edge seal.


I am still sat here swearing, useless good for nothing, low life, brain dead, shite brained, spineless, rip off, coniving, bodge merchant, lilly livered, useless excuses of a service provider.......well words to that affect!
