    Hi

    After a great day out in my car, thats been back on the road for a couple months or so, i picked up a stone chip. Which has the tel tale signs of starting to crack. So i Think i need a new screen.

    Does anyone know if Ford make new ones or if someone has some new old stock or is it find a wrecker and use that?


    If anyone can point me in a drirection that would be great.

    Thanks
    Mike

    Here in the US, you can buy a new Maverick front windshield from any glass installer. Sometimes, if the chip is not that large, the glass can be repaired using some sort of clear filler and they come right to your house and fix it in your driveway. :tiphat:

    They sell new thats great. I have them coming to my house next week, I hope they can fix it as I live in the UK. I'm just doing my home work first.

    thanks for your help

    I did notice that your steering wheel was on the "wrong" side of the car :biglaugh:

    Keep in mind that the front windshield is the only piece of glass that you can buy new for a Maverick - nothing else is reproduced so if you get a chance to buy a few extra pieces of the other glass - store them away just in case (y)

    Good luck

    PPG still makes them, if that helps.
