Cheap Auto Glass
The first step in getting cheap auto glass is deciding whether you need a repair or replacement, of which a replacement is going to cost more. The bigger the crack that you have on your windshield, the more likely it is that you're going to need a replacement.
You're more likely to need a full replacement if you have cracks right at the center of your windshield, at the edge of the windshield, an/or cracks, which make for an uneven surface on the glass. You can expect a repair to set you back around $40 and a replacement to set you back about $200.
Some people, when they see some sort of crack or damage on their windshield, think the worst and assume that their windshield will be broken within a matter of minutes. Although we are conditioned (perhaps by the advertisements from auto glass services) to always start looking to repair the auto glass, slightly damaged auto glass can last for years without a repair (especially if the crack or bruise if really minor).
To be on the safe side, however, it is recommended that you get any cracks you see repaired because once the crack starts increasing, it will get progressively worse until you need a full replacement.
If you find out that you need a complete windshield replacement, you can save a lot of money by going to a junkyard and picking up a nice used windshield from there. Since color does not matter, theres a good chance that you're going to find a matching windshield for your auto.
However, once you find one, don't try installing it yourself as you may cut yourself. You can pay an auto glass service around $50 to install the used windshield for you.
A lot of people wonder whether their car insurance can pay for the costs to repair their windshield.
If cracks start appearing on the windshield from normal wear and tear, your auto insurance company is not going to compensate you unless you have comprehensive coverage. If the cracks are related to an auto accident in which the other party was found to be at fault, then their property damage liability will pay for the cost to repair or replace your windshield.
Despite this, its always a good idea to talk to your car insurance company as insurers vary in their stance on auto glass repairs. - 21393
