Post Windscreen weight Question

Folks,

I now have 3 stone chips in my windscreen. It's time for a new one.... Couple of questions

1. How much do they cost for a 1990 C4 ?
2. How much weight would I save getting an RS windscreen ?
3. How much is an RS vs standard windscreen ?

Thanks

Andy

Dear Andy,
They are the same. For road cars the windshields were not permitted to be made thinner or lighter for different models of the same series. Side windows and rear window yes.
Ciao,

Hi Andy,
I had mine replaced in the UK (Autoglas) about a month ago and it was £577 including labour and part. Luckily I only had to pay the £50 insurance excess
When placing the order, make sure you mention:
1.If your current screen has the green sunshade strip at the top.
2.If it has the Radio antenna in the screen.

Cheers
