New windscreen price???
« on: March 08, 2009, 03:02:38 pm »
Just been out for a drive and the mrs noticed a large crack on the windscreen behind the rear view mirror :sad:. Its around 15cm long and curves round at the bottom. Has anyone had their windscreen replaced? does anyone have a roug price for one?
Thanks

How much is it for a privacy window? Would it be possible, feasible and cheap enough to get a privacy window installed instead of a standard one?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

For some reason, I read the OP as cracked rear window instead of front windscreen.

Anyway, yeah "privacy window" is the option for factory-tinted rear windows.
