can anyone help got a cracked windscreen on my escort cos and wondered what sort price can pick them up for, and the best place to go as i have never had to purches one before any ideas?

Thanks

 

Ł50 through your Insurance, If its heated it will be well into the hundreds to buy & get fitted yourself.

 

As above, had mine smashed chasing Yum a few years back.

just cost me Ł50 on my insurance.

 

well got someone to fit it just need to purchace one and didnt really want to go through my insurance!

 

why not?

its only a Ł50 excess and it normally doesnt affect your claims


otherwise your going to end up spending a fortune buying and fitting one which seems a tad daft to me

 

Ł50 is a bargain & a lot less trouble than DIY.

 

i got a heated one in my saph not long ago.. the total cost was over Ł300... my insurance paid in full!!

luckily!!!!

 

List price for a Saff heated screen is 515 +vat

 

jesus!!!!!! mine was'nt a ford one.. it came through autoglass. i think...

 

you can find one in a ghia xr3i rs2000 they all have heated ones, cost about Ł20-Ł40 from breakers yard, Get you mate to cut it out as they will ask for payment up front. Ł50 excess is only on cars with fully comp insurance.

 

Bloody hope he doesnt have an escort cossie on TPFT then

 

its a lot of hassle to fit a s/hand one and find the heating elements dont work

 

Exactly, better to have it done by a person that does it day in day out & have some come back if you have any problems.
I wouldn't drive a car like a Cossie on anything other than FC insurance.
