MY04 Windscreen

I am looking for a new windscreen as mine has been ripped severely by the wind and cigar ashes. regardless, I am not interested in paying $600 for a new one, so I was wondering if there was a online store, or even perhaps eBay, that would have this for a little bit lower price. even $350-$400 is reasonable. Thanks!

Keep you eye out on ebay and the classifieds. You should be able to pick one up for under $250 no problem.

In the UK you get free windscreen replacement if it gets chipped or cracked.
Nothing similar where you are? You know, just in case a stone hits your screen.

When he says windscreen, he is refering to the cloth material
behind the seats to reduce wind noise within the vehicle when
the roof is down. You are refering to what they understand to
be a windshield. Dont worry, living in England for many years,
I run into that confusion alot, along with "Boot" and trunk.

Was wondering what he meant when it was ripped! Thought it was some kind of slang! Should have realised - sorry fizzle!
