Kendo11 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Evening all. Has anybody who has had a windscreen replaced (through autoglass I should add) had to wait 6 weeks and counting for the glass? Despite the fact that these aren't your every day cars that seems a little excessive, and I was under the impression that Toyota had a large stock warehouse over in Ireland?

Tommyd16 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I got mine done next day. Was auto glass or similar. Done through my insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I fitted a new one when it was in the bodyshop, They could get the green sunshade one next day from UK stock but the blue sunshade one had a long lead time. Could have the colours mixed up there, but it's the jist of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra900bhp Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I used to work for them and they got fingers in most pies!! I'm sure I got mine in 2 days with a top tint and that come from one of there side company's called laddaws and about 2 years ago called up rac windscreens about my rear screen ( as that was the insurers choice ) and got one in the Toyota bag!! You might what give them a push there not that bad to get I know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Spoke to them today, told them I'm happy for it to be either the green or blue strip versions and they still have no idea when it is due, just got the same "it's on order" answer. I'll be speaking to Toyota tomorrow to see how long it takes for one to get ordered in, and then I'll be calling a manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 2 days for Toyota to get it into stock. Time to call autoglass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well would you believe it I've just spoken to a manager and given them what for and apparently it's due to arrive in today. Useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra900bhp Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Cool when they fit it make sure they fit the proper trim or use transporta trim as it's more or less the same just softer and will look like factory as seen some people fit universal flex trim on cars and they leave thick black bands around screens and lift with heat and end up looking dog poo! Hope it go's ok mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thanks mate, I did mention the seal but the guy on the phone had no idea lol. I'll speak to the fitter on Tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
