My nightmare

I was loading my Polaris ATV into the bed of my truck last night. I didn't stop the ATV from rolling fast enough. It smashed through my rear windshield.

 

Ouch!

 

I did the exact same thing with mine last year.

 

that sucks! Sorry to see this. Hope it doesn't cost too much to fix.

 

eeek!

 

well look at the bright side, at least u did it, not some cracked out d-bag looking for something to sell for another high.

ps good luck at getting that fixed up man

 

I still don't see a bright side to that. Still going to probably cost $1000+ to fix

sorry to hear that man

 

thats shitty

 

ya but what i was getting at is at least the dash isn't smashed and rummaged through and nothing is stolen and has to be replaced

 

Check insurance first...

Then check junk yards and craigs for parts...

Then look at the dealer

Sucks though...

 

Thats true

 

They are only about $240 to replace. There is a store on E-bay that has them for sale. I was going to order one for mine but ended up changing my mind. Not sure of the website but they are pretty good plus they deliver. Have replaced one before it is easier to take it to a proffesional to have them switched. Good luck!

 

Wow I expected much more then that to replace

 

Yeah it is not to bad. Now is also the best time to decide if you want a solid window or a slider. They would not ship to me in Germany but they shouldnt have a problem shipping to you. Just check on Ebay.

 

Thanks for the sympathies fellas, I'm out of state visiting my folks about 12 hours away on leave. Due back at work on Tuesday morning.

Looks like insurance is the quickest route so far. They wanted to use a mobile service to come out and install aftermarket glass. After a long conversation with safelite, I've told them that I only want OEM parts installed at a local Toyota dealership. They've signed off on my plan so far.

 

Perfect time to do this mod

Good call on the OEM glass... They're obligated for at least two years I believe to get OEM per request. At least, that's true of windshields.

All you'll need after that is some tint It might be easier for a shop to tint before going on, might be able to save a few coin that way too. Usually the glass guys are cool with that stuff, and have a hookup if you ask.

 

Sure you're not the first guy to do that. Still sucks though.

 

Dude that sucks. I'll keep my eyes open in the Alexandria area for a taco with no back window

 

You can consider replacing the rear window with a CR Lawrence power slider. Doesn't insurance cover the broken window? Maybe you can just pay the difference and get a power slider.
