I have 5 other cars and this is the only one I didn't get total care on due to the fact that I don't need a rental car. Roughly gonna take damage of 600/700 :(. Does anyone know if the GT Convertible has rain sensors.

Nup if they were to source the original they wanted $1900. Ford wanted 1700. Is there a huge difference between the genuine one and the aftermarket??

When I got mine done a month ago there wasnt an aftermarket one available so they had to source it from ford directly

Mine was replaced a few weeks ago too, with OEM via insurance (NRMA). I was ready to fight to get an OEM one, but they said they could only get OEM ones anyhow. I was happy, the guy showed me the invoice, it cost around $1,700 just for the glass!!

My windshied was hit by a stone on the way to Sale VIC - made a 'nice' crack in the top/middle area.

I am insured with RACV who work with O'Brien so hopefully will get an OEM, unless they can fix it?! :/

I'm with NRMA and have windscreen cover. Bit of a shock to read of some of the prices for replacement windscreens.

In 2003 I had an XR8; a rock came flying up off the wheels of a semi-trailer on the M4 and hit the top right corner of the windscreen. It left a little star crack. When I got home I went to wash the car and once the water hit it the crack spread from top to bottom.

Cost to replace $238.00.

Funny you mention that [MENTION=14631]RSPEC-015[/MENTION], my "little star crack" expanded to a "post earthquake crack" after yesterday's storm here in Batesman's bay. It. Def a new windshield will be required now...
