If the crack is longer than 150mm then its a wof fail . If its less than that they can drill and stop the crack from spreading . It must not be in the line of drivers vision .

http://www.autoglas-stieger.co.nz/cms/ somone said they dont do good installs. I had the windscreen installed by mobile installer at my workshop for 120$ so that is 254$ installed. what i have seen theyemploy cheap labour as they sell you real low priced products, but i see no fault with the product i got.

LONGER then 150mm anywhere ANYTHING directly in front of the driver (basicly the full screen height & 12" /300mm total width) ( basic width of the steering wheel 6" /150mm center either side of the hub)

I have worked with henry from Steigers in wellington. He has put screens in 2 of my cars and his work is top notch. Dont know about the other branches, can only comment on wellington.

There's a new thread starting up called "I can't give opinion on your thread unless it's grammatically perfect, because I don't understand what you're trying to say" (Run Forest, Ruuuuurrrrrn)
Back to the point: "I'm sorry my mower kicked up that stone that went through your window screen" Clark and Mellissa saw it too
