Anyone fitted a rear window?
In my experience, Autoglass charge 3-4 times more than local windscreen companies will do it for. If you ring around and tell them it's not going through your insurance, often you can get a new screen fitted for not much more than the excess would be. I've never had glass cover and I've never paid more than £130 for a windscreen fitted.

You're lucky then, I've fitted screens where the cost price of the glass to the company has been 10x that. Unfortunately I'm an ex-fitter and due my insurance company not adding glass cover when I asked for it had pay cash for my 307 and that cost £300 to have done.

I imagine that £1300 screen was on something fairly exotic?

Did you watch Watchdog........Autoglass were on it and they are the pits. I know insurance companies are sometimes tied to companies like them but what about National Windscreens?Jimnyjack1993 wrote: it took me 6 bookings over 5 weeks before autoglass came out.
