Windscreens for Maestros and Montegos

[Jeff Turbo]

My new monty has a crack and a chip in the screen. It looks like a green tint. "7013ABZGN" would the "GN" stand for green?

Would have to assume so yes, go through your insurance company

That's a great price Matt.
Do you have any other details or is it just a national number
I only put these up as a club members insurance couldn't get one and some are struggling to get one. It's only for reference not recommendation.

I understand. I dealt with the depot closest to the car which was the Swindon branch. They organised the rest.

If it's through insurance the excess is usually about £70 so if the screen costs £400 that is no concern of the owner. However the rubber seal is about £30 and not covered by the insurance. So my recent screen which I paid for myself cost no more than going through insurance.

I had one made and fitted this year for £105 by National Mobile Windscreens. They made me a bronze one and the price included a new rubber seal.

The highest price from that list plus VAT is £398.94. Nearly four times the cost from National Mobile Windscreens.

I used this chap when I had a new windscreen fitted to my Maestro. He had the screen I needed (clear) in stock, came out to me, supplied and fitted for £130 cash. Think he covers the whole of Essex.

Hi Jeff - its greatly appreciated you have done this - as it seems to be a indefinite supply now.

Regarding the eurocodes - why so many variations? I thought they were all the same? I'm prepared to be enlightened though.

What eurocode would a mg maestro turbo be?

cheers

mike...

I assume the codes are for
Clear with top tint?
Clear
Bronze
Bronze with bronze top tint
Bronze with blue top tint

Not sure, think clear Maestro windscreens but I may be wrong.
Will check
