Windscreen replacement

[T3gav]

Has anyone had a 182 windscreen replaced recently? Renault have discontinued them and Pilkington can only get clear screens for them now apparently...

Sorry for late reply and doubt its of any use to you, but...
Had mine replaced just over a year ago, was done and sourced by independent local company who got it from Renault main dealer at my request and insistence,
The first glass the fitters bought out was incorrect despite Renault assuring them that it was the correct part for the car, but, at second attempt, they got it right and supplied original 182 tinted glass which appeared identical, inc. Renault logo etc. I got the genuine surround too which was still available from Renault,

Not sure what the current situation with screens, but wouldn't be surprised if NLA, I know that the Renault left side quarter glass which I had fitted at the same time is NLA, and was told it was the last one in the UK.

You don't happen to have a part number or reference for the OEM windscreen, do you?

Sorry no, the screen company procured them, and part numbers not included on invoice.
The screen with fitting was about 430, and another 210 for rear quarter.

Thanks, auto windscreens have refunded me, going to try Autoglass next...

So update... I ordered a screen from Autoglass in November which I've been chasing along the way (£800 solar tint), they rang me today to tell me they can't actually get it anymore, they have a £600 tinted option but it has no rain sensor, f**king useless...

Yep used a local company in the end, correct glass and only £354, I just paid my insurance excess. Part number was Pilkington 7248ACCM1R or 43R-001610.

Does anyone know if the 172 cup uses the same screen?

Just had mine done today by autoglass, it looks very close to factory just without the square at the bottom of the screen which I'm not fussed about, happy with the outcome on mine

I had a OEM Renault stamped windscreen fitted by National windscreens in Gloucester. I didn't ask they just turned up with it.

 

[Matt Cup]

Do you have the part number by chance?

Are windscreen replacement now going down as a claim?

Cant answer for all insurers but Howdens told me that it would, went with Greenlight in the end - asked the advisor but he was too northern to understand over the phone line noise

 

[imprezaworks]

That's harsh ref the claim imo

I've just priced up a 182 Trophy screen with Halifax Windscreens - trade price £186 fitted

 

[imprezaworks]

Wonder how much it effects people's policies
