it only needed one hole drilling and a new bolt to earth the wires.
Will do, it may be the shock of being put inside the garage for the first time in years
good job I started clearing it before Christmas. It started raining then hailstones so the fitter was glad to be inside. Job not finished as the new top trim had a dent in it when he took it out of the package .
I take it you disconnected the battery and awaited for a reasonable time before plgaying with the connection.
who fitted the screen as just had to do same with mine as earth bolt had snapped and fitter wouldn't drill new holeHi peeps,as per title could there be a connection to the two events? I had to make a new earthing point for the screen wiring as the fitter was lost when the nut was rusted to nothing. He said he couldn't modify the installation
Auto windscreen.guess its common ,then again what do you expect mine's a 1998 so 22 years .
same here mate mines a 2000 ours was done by auto glass chap said I'm not going to drill it as it a mod we don't do that I sadi ill do it and then you can put it all back together he said no and left so took pictures and sent to insurance company as to what they did and now insurance won't pay full price for screenAuto windscreen.guess its common ,then again what do you expect mine's a 1998 so 22 years .
Certainly did. I'm not to keen on loud bangs and smokeI take it you disconnected the battery and awaited for a reasonable time before plgaying with the connection.
Shower of bastards,my guy was great and was very appreciative of me helping him lift the old one out. He fitted the new one then gave me a shout to drill the hole and fit the earth bolt. Then finished it off, except for the top trim which was dented. He said they will come back to fit when they get a new one.
I personally didnt, i just gave the connection a jiggle (the wires move in and out of the plastic a bit)I take it you disconnected the battery and awaited for a reasonable time before plgaying with the connection.
I didn't think so Tony,hope you had a good Christmas mate.take care.
First time they came was with wrong screen chap ordered new one and all the clips second time the trim screws was rusted in so didn't wanna undo them so again I did as said drill them out as got some new screws to replace them
Use smokeless cartridges mate or are you still on black powder?
This guy drilled out the old rusty screws but I need one new plastic insert . He was from Alaska so probably not tainted by the jobs worth ideology of this country yet.
some people are like that won't do more than they should the first bloke who came out owned a range rover so he knew what to expect but sadly he didn't come out second time round
Been thinking, dangerous I know,but I wonder if they have buggered a bulb in the airbag system when the fitter used an electric reciprocating scraper to cut through the screen sealant.
thats a possibility they might of caught somethingJust had a phonecall from Autowindscreens to tell me they will be out on Saturday to fit the new top trim.
