waltzinblack Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 04 model. New or near new considered.. mine has tiny chips and imperfections all over, not something that would affect MOT so insurance couldnt care less. It's almost like its constantly dirty but cleaning does nothing! Nissan wanted £785 and Autoglass over £1000, ideally looking for quite a bit cheaper than that!

bkjmr Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 How much is your windscreen excess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltzinblack Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Insurance wont cover it, I didnt have windscreen cover originally (my fault for not checking!) and they are adding to my premium to have it on there, AND the excess on top means it'll be more than I want to pay.

mattbowey Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 try national windscreens, they're normally half the price of autoglass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Mine cost me £70 as it was covered on my insurance can't you wait till renewal time I'm sure the guy said it was over £500 just for the glass... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Where are you based? I use a company called Celtic Windscreens (obviously based in Wales) for a 350z screen a few years back and it was only around £400 then so wouldn't be any more now. Dave.

cmck13 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I took mine to Autoglass it didn't have large chips or cracks but general road rash. The Autoglass windscreen guy makes the decision if he thinks its a replacement job, which he did of course Replaced the window, paid the excess, no involvement with admiral, job done.

Most things are more now than a few years back not least VAT... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jell36 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'm shocked by the prices everyone is getting, National windscreens quoted my £150 for a replacement windscreen only 3 weeks ago or £75 if done through insurance as excess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltzinblack Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Yep, I got a great quote from them too.. can anyone confirm that National windscreens do a good job? I mean Autoglass at £1200 seems way too expensive, but National Screens at £200 seems WAY too cheap. Too good to be true sorta thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenn-350 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Yep, I got a great quote from them too.. can anyone confirm that National windscreens do a good job? I mean Autoglass at £1200 seems way too expensive, but National Screens at £200 seems WAY too cheap. Too good to be true sorta thing Had a new sceen fitted by National screen this evening, was a bit worried as the 2 guys said they had never fitted to a 350z. And wished there boss had given them this job earlier in the day, but fair play to the chaps they done a good job [and i'm a fussy old git] they took there time and did'nt go charging in . first class I asked how a company could do this for my £75 excess, they say sceens about £150. heavely discounted unlike autoglass.
