[QUOTE="VelocityYellowRules!, post: 49781, member: 1318"] Good evening Colin, Nope, sorry! That is the souvenir crack from the car's trip east. It moved across the windshield as one would expect so it needs to be attended to before the RCMP stop and ticket me............... Yes, those are the real prices, sort of a shock isn't it! I don't have glass insurance and I am not sure if that is different from Ontario but it is a separate item here and a real increase in insurance costs as I recall. At least I'm pretty sure I didn't get glass insurance for the car. I suppose I ought to check with the insurance people tomorrow though to be sure. No point in draining my wallet further if I could avoid it!! It appears Riley's post above is correct, there is a layer in between the glass layers and as well it it thicker, slightly, at the bottom than the top. on another site the guy who was involved with developing the HUD windshields (also did aircraft ones) explained why it was requrioed that there are two different types but I was more interested in reading abou the non-HUD windshield installed experiences. Some say it is fine, others that there is a noticable reduction in image quality........... Cheers, Garry [/QUOTE]
