My Expensive Lesson to Share
If you owen a vert treat your rear window like gold! Long story short, I hid a xmas present from the wife in the rear toneau area (where the roof stows when its down) and kinda forgot about it and tried to drop the top untill I heard the pop.
Yup there went the rear window. Ok punch self now, but its ok its just a window, couple hundread bones and a call to the glass guys and like new, never happened right?
WRONG!!!!
Whole new roof!!!!!!
The rear glass in the convertables is glued and sewen in and is too difficult to replace, for this reason the glass is ONLY sold as part of the roof.
So what does that mean.... a trip to ford to order the new roof (7-10 days of shipping time for the roof) and about 3600 bucks for the roof and then having the labour of replacing the part and everything else.
so the car is in the bodyshop under an insurance claim and i should get the car back in about 3 weeks or so...
merry xmas to me
merry xmas to me
how the hell am i gonna pay the 1k dollar deducable
my pain your lesson
cheers
