front windshield crack

It looks like a small heat crack is starting to develop on my front window....
does anybody have any idea how much it might cost to get a new one replaced? i dont plan on filling it through my insurance company.

One cheap possibility is to check with a windshield repair place, and see if the crack can be repaired. Some can be repaired, some can't.

well, what is your deductible on the glass-coverage??


i just had my windshield replaced about 6-weeks ago with an OEM replacement windshield
(believe me, theres a difference between one of these and an off-brand one)

the windshield alone was $380.00 plus the labor to install...
my cost for the repair was $0.00 thru the insurance since theres no deductible

that deductible pertains to the comp and collision...
(the glass-coverage is considered a part of that but it has a different deductible)

check your insurance declarations or call your agent

yeah, I have a 500 deductable for collision and sh**, but for glass, I got a new window, with tint for 0. Use the insurance, it wont raise it on you.
