Just washed the car and have just noticed a crack in my windscreen, does anyone know if the spec-c windscreens are thinner like the rest of the glass,

 

Yes they are thinner, you need to go though the dealer for the glass really, last one on mine took 6 months, then went to the dealer who got me one in 3 days

Iv already had 2 chips repaired in 3 months! If it ever breaks Im just gona get the stronger std windscreen

ps apparently its just the chepo lighter windscreen from e.g a bogo GL model or similar!

 

I have just looked on my insurance and i am covered for windscreens with a £50 excess, i will see what they say tomorrow but would be tempted to put a normal one in if they are prone to chipping/cracking,

 

Its a different windscreen altogether with its own part number, order only from japan unfortunately
I should add that there are 3 different types of windscreen for the STi's, this is the most expensive one

How much does it cost?

 

Mine was about 640 quid, normally more like 800

Thanks for the info Tony , I will tell A-Plan tomorrow to make sure they get the right one

 

just had a normal replacement put in mine after returning from a nice trip to WRC germany a few years back it cracked just inside france on the return journey.

 

I been unlucky on my MY06 Spec C and had 2 cracked screen now.
I spoke to Iain Litchfield first time round and he told me it was the same as a standard STi.
