Go out and whack your one with a hammer, claim it on the insurance. When mine cracked, I had to pay my £60 excess, but the fitter took £20 on the side for the tinted screen.

Auto Windscreens have fitted two for me now, both with the tinted strip at the top.

First time it was £100 fitted, the second (about 18 months ago) was £110.

You use a cheese wire to remove glass.

^If the excess is more than a windscreen then that is useless.
