    Yep, contacted them as they aren't to far away. Two issues really, getting it out in one piece and the £150 price tag!!!

    I can't believe you still haven't been able to source a screen yet. I did so want to buy your car, Still not found an alternative yet.

    150 pounds doen't seem too unfair to me. There are three listed now on Japhoo, from 7000 to 12,300 yen. See what Streeter can do for you, but with shipping and commission, the local one might be a good deal in one piece.

    I assume Steve gave you a price but for anyone who's interested we had a new screen as part of last years crash damage. The glass from our local Honda dealer was £210.17. The parts list also included various seals and mouldings totalling around £78 and £26 for the "glue" . (A new bonnet £415.44.) All excluding VAT which we don't have here.
    As to timing we needed quite a string of bits which were ordered early August and took until the end of the year before they all arrived.

    I just took my beat into the local Auto Glass repair firm (Smith & Smith in Christchurch, New Zealand) they replaced it on the same day at no cost as autoglass is covered by my insurance policy - I wasn't even aware there might have been a problem.David Stove

    Wow, I'm surprised it was that easy. Good to know
