A truck in front of me broke a tree branch off which landed on my windscreen, leaving me with 3 cracks about 8 inchs long. Where would be the best place for a change in Perthshire, much cheapness that is..  :)

Find an independent supplier and buy the screen (or find someone with a spare), very simple to fit yourself, it is easiest with a helper. I got one for £45 a year or so ago from strathclyde windscreens.

If you do find someone with a spare that is in the surround, cut it out, DO NOT try and remove with the seal (like I did!) it will probably break.
