Default REAR WINDOW - PUT THROUGH B*STAR0S

Hi ppl

Just jumped in the car to go to the gym shut the door and the back window has just fallen out (in bits)!!!

I go to the back of the car to see whats happened and right in the bottom right hand corner of the window you can see where either someone or something (possibly) has hit the window. It shattered into pieces so I have just spent the last hour cleaning it up and putting some sheeting over the back window.

Now the question is if im fully comp ins will it be covered ? or do you recon it would be just as easy to find and buy a bugeye wagon boot and take the window out of it ?

Check your policy if it's windscreen cover or glass cover, if it's windscreen cover they probably mark your policy with a claim. if it's glass you'll be fine. you can do it yourself with sikerflex / tigerseal or pay a glass man around £80ish for him to supply and fit a 2nd hand glass. It's not a hard job and it's not got any safety implications like the structural support of a windscreen

Thanks for your replies, Im not sure if its covered my ins is through Moley WRX on here so Im gona give him a call in the morning.

No cctv it happened outside my house but just not sure when or where it has happened, I had drove home rom work in it and it seemed fine, I went inside had some food and when I closed the door thewindow smashed. I have no idea how its happened to be honest. It could have been a stone thats flicked up or somebody thats do it on purpose I have no idea and thats whats getting to me at the min as I have no idea how it has happened.

All I do know is im seriously pi55ed off rite this min !!
