Got a miassive crack in mine from a stone hitting it so need a new one is it possible to get them through the normal windscreen people asnd put it through insurance our am i gonna have to buy one myself?Im in Northern Ireland if that makes a difference

You should get one through insurance (I did). I'm told that there is quite a wait to get them though. Mine took four days, but I've heard stories of six weeks...

there is suppose to be a serious delay on them down south off ireland as far as i know. an they retail some where round a 1000yoyo.!

Or around ?550. ?60 on insurance

 

[BarryL]

most definately if ya have screen cover.personally i dont have any myself. trade insurance dont give the option!

As Channie's rear screen thread has shown, its really a VERY good idea to have windscreen cover if you've got an S15... :nod:

?550 for a front screen
?300+ for a quarter glass
?1350 for a rear screen
God knows what for a door glass...

Screen repairs are also totally free.

wish i had checked the dam box
18 working day delay at nissan for stuff from Japan at the mo!

If youve got insurance for it then use it!!!

Goodlord looking at it now the cost of my insurance is almost half of the cost of the rear windscreen... i could have insurance for another 2 years paid if the thing hadnt broken...

lol took my screen about 4 months to come through i think the windscreen company thought i was stalking them with the amount of clls i gave them lol

ive got windscreen cover but tried two places and they haven't been able to get them yet thats my prob!!

Would you go second hand? have you tried euro salvage?? the last time i was up there he had 3 silvias, one of them might have a good window. could be tough to get it out of the car though

They have to order them through Nissan. At least, RAC Windscreens did with mine. Make totally 100% sure they know its an S15 Silvia, NOT and S14, S13 or S12.

the one's i was with only has s12 and s13 on there list and they didn't understand the chassis num!!
