Alright...I am about to purchase a '96 RS from this kid i know.

but anyways, the windshield is cracked..and I noticed since I last saw it, the crack has extended almost entirely across the window.


How much will I have to pay to get this repaired ? I heard cracks can be fixed without replacing the entire glass.

But if I do have to replace the glass, how much can I find one for ? should I check a junk yard ? How much to install ?!

I swear. One fucking car problem after another.

once the crack gets too big (as it sounds) its pretty hard to repair it without it being noticable. you could probably get a new one installed for a couple hundrend bucks.

in certain states they will buy you a new windshield if it is in your line of vision when you are driving

In florida if you have a cracked windsheild the insurance company has to replace it for free with no deductible.

I just cracked my windshield as well. Here's what i did...

Next to my shop i have an auto upholstery and glass shop, and i'm close with them. I asked them what to do and they said to call your insurance, and that all you I would pay is the 100 deductible. Apparently out windshields are very expensive compared to other cars... anyways i called the insurance and I told them my glass was broken, then they askde me what shop i wanted to use, so they faxed over the papers and everything and told me to go get the windshield repaired at the shop and all i'd pay was the deductible. Luckily the glass guys were cool about the whole thing and never collected the deductible, since i let them park in my parking spots... ha ha ha!!

so yeah the moral of the story is to call the insurance company then all you will pay will be $100 deductible to the glass shop. Also if the windshield broke cuz it was your fault, lie and tell them a rock hit it or something or they won't pay to fix it... (if anyone asks i never told you to lie) ;)
