December 13, 201510 yr Hi all, i've tried google to find out, but not come up with much !! So, has anyone had their windscreen replaced on a hatchback model ? The reason i ask is i was cleaning the inside of my windscreen on my 2008 sti this morning, when i noticed it was sort of loose. As in when i pushed against it there was obvious movement, like as though if i pushed hard enough it would pop out !! I assumed they should be bonded in, but wasn't sure...any ideas ? If so, then i'd say mine has let go big time.
December 13, 201510 yr Author Yes I do, and was thinking of getting it replaced in the new year as there is a small crack on on side. It was just after noticing the movement I was thinking maybe I didn't ought to wait to get it done. Also they may not class the crack as in need of replacing, but if it wasn't fitted correctly it may be more of a safety issue.
December 13, 201510 yr I had mine replaced last year due to a chip that could not be repaired. I have never noticed any movement and would get that sorted ASAP.
December 14, 201510 yr Agree with previous post as most windscreens are part of the structural integrity now. And if nothing else water ingress could cause all manner of problems especially this time of year where trapped water may freeze and cause more damage.
December 14, 201510 yr Author That was one of my main concerns, the structural side of things. I think it's time to give Autoglass a bell ! Thanks for the advice to you all.
