Mileage now 90100 had to have a new screen fitted at jp in hailsham that's £214 down the loo
On the plus side the nice chap at jp (Jason?) Allowed me to fit the permanent feed for my roadhawk into the headlining and a piller while he had all the trim off

yours hits 90100. mine last night hit 34000 miles, but you of a much bigger commute to work everyday. mines only about 3 miles each way.
its amazing how many people drive with a camera in there car and a good idea, also people riding bikes normally have a helmet cam, just go on you tube and your see loads of videos of near misses and the posting up the reg numbers.
how come you paid for a new windscreen have you not got windscreen cover on your insurance?

After claiming for a screen few years ago they put my base policy price up they say it doesent effect your no claims bonus which is true but it does effect the base policy price (I.e. the price it would be before the no claims is applied) also excesss for the screen would probably have been £70-100 and I have saved a few hundred quid more over the last few years by not taking the screen insurance
Now I have a new problem I was wireing the lower end of the roadhawk loom into the fuse box in the passenger foot well only to find the foot well and sound insulation swimming in about 1/4 inch of water so spent the day looking for a leak. I checked the sunroof drains all working fine same with the bulkhead drains. run water down the a piller no leaks and I'm not short of any coolant so don't think it's the heater just wondering could it be that I dident put the door seal back on properly when I left the so screen shop?
Anyway drying it out today in the garage and will stick the dehumidifier in the car tonight and will just have to keep an eye on it

So my new screen lasted 11 days before needing its first chip repair! Another £20 wasted plus I have to look at the damage every time I drive it now grr On the plus side I found the source of the water ingress  Just have no idea how to fix it or how it's getting on that side of the door seal? |

i got a chip in my screen, keep meaning to get it fixed.
there must be a nip in the seal or the only other thing i can think is to remove the seal and give everything a good clean , dry and put some sealant in the groove and stick it back on.
other than that replace the seal
