Cost of original OEM windshield?
Got stuck behind a rock carrier truck and splat - got a nice star shaped crack damage to my windshield.
My comprehensive insurance policy for windshields is no deductible for a repair and a $500 for replacement. I'm going the repair route first to see if it acceptable. Picked a very reputable and well-rated place. Cross fingers.
Just in case, I need to replace. Has anyone replaced with an original OEM Mazda windshield?
And if so - how much was it? For the windshield and for labor?
I'll try to snap a picture and post it. Thanks!

I actually just priced this out a few weeks ago at Speedy Autoglass; they do quotes over the phone. Hell if I can find the notes I made but it came in at around $450 CAD with labor.

I managed to get the phone # off the truck's door, and after some haggling they agreed to pay for the replacement. I did go to the police however, and they expedited the process with the initial phone call. Luckily there was still a piece of timber in the windshield as proof.
