I was on the M6 and we heaed a stone flick but didnt see the crack till we got to bham. was 1 inch and now gone to six and growing :scared: from lower driver left coming toward centre of screen.

Should only be a 70 or 80 quid glass excess on your insurance for a replacement ;)

Will they come out on bank holiday Monday? can't believed second time to bham and this time it's a bad crack along the bottom.

Hmmm, perhaps not. Not sure. Ive always been unlucky too. On my 3rd or 4th screen since owning the car.
Although one I changed cause it was marked and not actually damaged lol
-
Not a chance on a bank holiday, Can you put some tape on it? :grin:
I put a brand new screen in my track MK2 and took it to Thruxton. On the warmup lap a rock hit the screen and cracked it, and then I ran over my mates splitter. I was not happy!

No repairing that then.....Please post up to let us know how it went - any problems, what did they take apart etc (the A pillar trims look very close to the screen!)

I'm. going to try a trick my brother in law showed me on YouTube. Mix some salt, any bug spray, alcohol liquid wipe and water mix it up light paste onto screen leave for two hours and apparently the screen fixes like new so will let you know how not goes. or tape it up as you mentioned.
