Cracked Windscreen Yesterday!

Extremely pissed off at the fact that my windscreen now has a big crack across the middle, and insurance will not cover it. Are they pretty expensive to have replaced?

well that's all good then, talked to a mate who said i could be looking at up to 1k. Would be more if the car was an uncommon one right?

1k? what do you drive? what woofer broke your windshield? *****

Drive a Mazda Sentia, which were never sold in NZ so there isn't many. Weren't too many sold anywhere actually, they were pretty overpriced I think. Also I'm talking 1k in NZ$, which is less, but still a lot more than I'd like to pay.

It's a windshield, shouldn't be too much... Rare or not... I take it you guys don't have mobile repair/replacement guys that can come to your house and do it?

Yeah I do but it'll save me some coin to just drive it in and have it done

Quoting what Safelite charges us here in the U.S. isn't a lot of help to a guy from New Zealand.

OP, just call around and find out. As good as their intentions are, the info these guys are giving here isn't really applicable to you.
