How were the windscreen fitters? Must admit I’ve avoided using insurer approved fitters for last 3 windscreens I’ve needed…..

This was done by Auto Windscreens and they were really good. They sent two fitters because the screen is so large it's a two-person job to lift it in to place, and that turned out to be invaluable for getting it out too. It was the original screen and the glue was apparently incredibly hard so it took both of them an hour to get it out using every tool they had, but they were very careful with the trim and paint while doing so and didn't damage anything.
As they had, rather optimistically, picked up this job at 4:45 on a Friday afternoon, they were quite grateful that I'd already removed all the trim and so didn't require them to put it back.
I'd made a cardboard template of the position of the glass relative to the body so that we could set it in the right place, since the surrounding trim wasn't going back on at that point, and they were happy to tweak the new glass around so that it matched the template perfectly so everything would go back together.
I think it was 6:30 by the time they left, although they were on overtime by then so not too miffed!
