Default Windscreen Replacement

All of a sudden I have what looks like someone has sprayed the front screen with glitter. Its almost a hase. I have tried loads of things on the screen to get it off but I have come to the conclusion that they must be tiny chips. It is a nightmare when driving towards the sun and If there is one thing that drives me complety mental is a dirty windscreen.

So i was wondering about replacing that windscreen thats how much its bothering me.

Please dont answer, smash it with a hammer because I dont want to do that. So where can I get a new one from? Are they really expensive?

Thanks Claire

Windscreen will cost you around £180 fitted if green tinted, if it's Bronze your screwed they are £330 + VAT just for the glass!!! Your best bet is your insurance if your covered, I work for National Windscreens give them a call on 0800 622 122 they will be able to tell you if we can do it through your insurance. Hope I qa some help :-)
