Default New Windscreen - bad news!

Well, I got an advisory on my MOT for chips in the windscreen, so I asked my insurance company if they'd replace it. That was fine, just £75 and no impact on my NCB. But it wasn't going to be an Audi screen and had to be fitted by Autoglass.

All the arrangements were brilliant. I made an appointment to get it done at home, they confirmed the time slot and the 'technician' called to say exactly when he'd arrive.

BUT - the screen doesn't fit flush in the top offside corner and they've marked the interior trim on the A pillar (see photos).

A "more experienced technician" is coming again on Friday!
