How do all?

Today I've come across a chip in the windscreen with a crack which seems to be growing. Anyway do any of you know if it can't be replaced (which i can't see it being) with a genuine vw screen rather than a RAC/autoglass one if you specify it with your insurance company that you want it replacing with a genuine part?

Any info and advice on the matter would be much appreciated.

I've just had a look at the policy as well which says for any windscreen related issues theres an excess of £70 so I take it thats including chip repairs?

Many thanks Luke

Autoglass do use genuine screens as I supplied them with genuine Honda all the time when I was in the trade. U can ask them for genuine aswell or they can fix your screen if it's not too bad
