Two weeks ago I smashed the wind screen 40 k north of Karartha in the Pilbarra. Replacement cost was $502. How much does one cost in Melbourne?

Since when do windscreens ever cost money?
insurance policy with free glass is the only way to boogie

speaking of windscreens.... off topic for a second,, would a ba rear window fit an au....i was thinking of getting rid of the gaurd aerial and useing a ba rear window , it has the antenna inbuilt i think if i`m not mistaken , i know the ba front is smaller than au .

easy answer no ... unless you graft a BA roof on.
But you can buy an aftermarket on glass radio aerial if you are that serious about it. Definitely cheaper than a BA roof and rear glass LOL. |
