windscreen
anybody know what the going price is for a windscreen fitted to a 460?
or has anyone got one without chips/cracks in it anywhere in teh east/midlands?
they're not much... i fitted a heat reflective windscreen with the black hash at the top for about £160 or so at my local MB stealer...
Can't imagine they'd be expensive. Just a flat piece of glass after all.
Just been quoted £90+VAT not inc delivery. Where did yours come from?
i was quoted £60 Supplied and £90 fitted 0808 1663291 clearview windscreens, edingley, nottingham, friendly bloke even spent 10 mins telling me how to fit it correctly!
Thanks, will call them if required but I have found a second hand one. How easy are they to get out without breaking them?
you always take a chance with old glass as it get brittle
not worth the hassle i dont think - but if youve got one local
It's localish but I don't want to pay £30 then break it when I take it out. All a bit annoying as the bodyshop broke my current one while repairing rust around it. I guess that was always going to be a risk but they didn't make me aware of it at the start. I'll speak to clearview. Thanks.
Hmm..
My 460 has a couple of large stone chips in it and I was going to eventually claim on the insurance for replacement glass. But the excess is £70 already, still at least I guess it would be fitted by professionals.
You say that, but the 'pro's' that eventually did mine left it in a right mess. That said, even if you can source a new one for £60 like Cozz did I'd still claim and pay the extra £10 to have it fitted. You're insurance will probably want to repair it before they replace it though.
