If you have fully comprehensive insurance, it'll cost you the usual glass excess of Â£60. Contact your insurer and they'll refer you to a local place like Autoglass.

You're easily looking at well over Â£100 I'd say.

I got one last week cost me 160 mates rates so 180 -190 i would guess!

i was expecting it to be between 200 and 300 so thats a bit of a relief, would you just recommend going to say auto glass or a small business?

You might be able to get it on the cheap but when I was quoted from Autoglass for my rear windscreen which some bugger put through it was Â£341.

You could've had three windscreens done with the private guy and still be cheaper than autoglass!
