Well, I just had my windscreen replaced at Speedy. I was glad I stuck
around as I had to take the radio and the blower out to get to the
center bolt on the windscreen.
The new one was made in Peru !! and was shipped from Iowa.
It was tough job to get the new one in the frame and not without 3 of us
pulling on it and persuasion with a rubber mallet. Anyway, the total
bill was $1076 Can. with me paying the $100 deductible !
To Curt, sorry I did not order through you. We have a Crown Corporation
providing car insurance in B.C. and they have their rules and I had to
go through a dealer.
Based on my experience today, this is not a job I would recommend
tackling at home.
