I doubt a chopshop will look after the windscreen with finesse and detail. And if it's a windscreen that's on a halfcut and you want to take it out and install on yours - unless your car is super rare and impossible to find parts for, better don't.Hi guys, is it recommended to use a chop shop windshield to replace current windshield? Is there any disadvantage like easily broken because it was a used part.
Many thanks
Like my Sonata III, now worried as even body parts hard to find as no more chop parts....I doubt a chopshop will look after the windscreen with finesse and detail.

Ah, so there's a risk of the chop shop windshield has existing damages that we can't detrctI doubt a chopshop will look after the windscreen with finesse and detail.

Yup, because they need to remove from half cut and might get damaged which may appear later on only.....Ah, so there's a risk of the chop shop windshield has existing damages that we can't detrct
What about the make of the windshield. Any idea which manufacturer is better? Or which to avoidI have thought about it. Yea depends, it might be worth it. Like our local cars are easily covered by insurance, get a new one straight.
Depends on the screen. If laminated, it will crack but will hold. If tempered, it will shatter to pieces, that one need to change immediately.....it's better to use Insurance cover rather than you bought the half-cut one.
In condition, if it only has crack you can wait for insurance renewal then add windscreen cover for almost rm100 if i'm right.
But then if there is thousand cracks, i recommend you go for halfcut which might be far more cheaper than the new one.
