Default broken side glass

well it finally happened. some one broke my drivers side glass and also stole my console. found some consoles on ebay and side glass but seeing as i have good insurance i wondered if there are places that still make the side glass. and how much would it cost installed. i need this info before the adjuster comes out, to make sure they get the cost right. the consoles i found on ebay are $600.00. found side glass for $185.00 plus shipping.

i know its sucks to be broken into.My 06 GT Convertible had the drivers glass pryed out.Had 4300 in stereo equiptment taken as well as $3800 in damage to the dash and scratches.What did my insurance do for me????Nothing, stereo was not covered and they fought everything.

Take it to a reputable shop so they can handle the adjuster, usually they know whatever they can read in a manual and no hands on.

well i have state farm, have had them for 30 years. found out the cost of replacement is $600.00 form our local glass shop, safelight glass, there nation wide. found the console on ebay, $600.00. i have $250.00 deductible. figured if i got the $950.00 then i could buy the glass myself, found it new on ebay for $345.00 plus shipping. and the dash also. well see tomorrow.

they will not give you the cash directly.

I cant even cash a check from Mercury because they want proof the car was repaired.I didnt get a invoice and the shop is out of business, so im out 575 bucks.

well safelight glass is doing the job, having the glass overnight-ed. state farm will pay them direct, $680.00. they stole my console so state farm says there going to have to send me a check for that. seeing as you cant get original one anymore. what i did was print out a few off ebay, well there for a 69, and sent them those. they $$$+++. around $600.00 +
