Default Honeymoon Blues

The wedding went smoothly, however that night sucked.
To make a long story short there was a large wind storm, although not officially a tornado, which snapped a basketball goal which in turn used the backboard as a set of wings and decided to make a landing on my glass top which responded with a loud bang when it shattered the glass top. Luckily the vette was parked at my parents place and I turned the cell phone off so we were clueless untill we came back and we were able to enjoy the hotel room, I mean honeymoon.

So does anybody know how I can replace the glass top for a good price? :cry

Doesn't your insurance cover that?

Expect about $800. for a rebuild with exchange and about $1250. for a new one no exchange. Make sure its coated.

Jenn (Trills) just had her early C4 top replaced due to a growing crack, her insurance company made good for about $2200. after deduct she ended up with about $1800. Not bad. Look for the post "My top cracked..."

Definitely, even if the deduct is 500. they will save you about 300. difference. That would probably fall under the comprehensive. That is unless it was an act of God the infamous catch all.

There are used one's on e-bay too. Mid America and Ecklers are about the same prices mentioned above.
