I found the original MOPAR screen to be very weak. Had a couple of rocks knock it and basically self destructed.
Had Windscreen O'B' mob come out and put in a new one. Only cost $380. Since then I have had much larger rocks and and other debris hit without any damage.
Just my 2 cents. But, if anyone quotes over $400 tell em they're dreamin'!

OK, have the actual numbers in front of me now - not quite as big difference as I remembered....

genuine jeep: $1053
non-genuine: $817

from Windscreens O'Brien.

Crusty Juggler - that's a damn good deal! where are you?

Kimba,

I'm in Canberra mate.
That's a joke of a price they've quoted you mate. Oh well there has got to be something good about living here. Except the awesome driving in the Brindies, and in the Snowies, and the easy access to some great tracks down the South Coast. Hang-on... I love it here.

If wanted I can see if I can dig up a copy of my Invoice. Might be able to get some price matching done.

Thanks for the offer, but luckily I didn't need to get the whole thing done this time around... Always good to know what prices people are getting elsewhere though
