Raleigh/Durham/Triangle Area Meet
I concur!
On an unrelated note, my front windshield needs to be replaced. I got a few cracks running down the middle of it from what I can only assume a severe temp change when I washed it. There is no visible sign of an impact point and it happened when I was rinsing the pollen off. I didn't see it happen explicitly I just noticed it right after I rinsed it.
Anyway, I have $500 deduct on comprehensive and they don't waive the fee for "replacement" only "repair." So I need a good reputable shop that can do the replacement for me. Preferably on site and soon!

The windshield on my X also cracked (but from a small rock). I remember hearing the rock, but didn't see anything. Woke up the next morning and the crack was 1.5 feet long.
I used Glass Doctor. Total to replace was around $250. They used OEM glass. They came out to my work and replaced it. They were able to do it same day for me.

If they can't do it, you could Safelite. I think they cost the same and will also come to you.

So I am now going with Safelite, which my insurance recommended too. $307 + Tax No add'l charge for on-site.
I'll gladly pay that based on how weak these damn windows are!
I'll be taking advantage of it too when my windshield starts getting those freaking pothole marks in it.
Yea, you're insurance should cover that windshield 100% free.
It's considered a safety issue, and they have to cover it.
especially if it was 1.5 feet long.
I got mine done a while back when a truck kicked up a rock and put a quarter size hole right in my vision area..
free99 and they came to my work and did it in the parking lot in an hour.

Now, if it's a small crack or chip that is smaller than a dollar (like your situation with your truck), then insurance will cover the fix for free (assuming it's fixable)
I went with Glass Doctor's at first based on their quote. Then they called me back about 30 minutes ago and told me they misquoted me. From $304 --> $360, and that's if I come to their shop. On site is an additional fee.

Oh well, at least Safelite is taking care of it for you. Both companies are good at this stuff.

maybe it's different here in SC, than it is in NC.
They told me, if it was in my vision, it was a hazard, and they would pay 100%.
If it was small ding, they'd repair, if it was a runner crack, then replace.
Told em it was a running crack and that was it.
within 3 days, I had new windshield.
I got full replacement for free, didn't pay a dime.
And my Ded. was 500$ also.
They came to my work, replaced it, and I didn't pay a dime.
What ins. co. ?
mine is state farm
That's a bad break with the windshield. Don't wait until you slam the door shut and shatter your windshield like I did on my old 944.
I'm down for a meet for sure, but if you want a good shot of your car we're better off spending an hour or two 1 on 1 instead instead of the parkign lot at the hooters. I'm debating on whether or not to go to a brewery tour with friends on saturday too...
I'll give you a call
You too man. Hope everyone got out and enjoyed the nice weather this weekend.
Looks like there's UFC Saturday so we may be meeting up at Hooters again if everyone's up for it. I'll update the OP if there's interest.
Robert - Give me a call/PM this week and let's figure out a good time for Saturday if you're still up for it. Looks like we're supposed to get nice weather next weekend.
