Windscreen replacement- a headache??


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I was thinking of buying a 2018 Vellfire from jap. Just wondering, if a windscreen needs to be replaced at some stage. How much of a head ache is it? I can't seem to find a part number for one online and any places I've searched seem to be all out of stock..

I would have assumed that the windscreen in the Alphard/Vellfire would be the same type as a few other Toyota models? Or is that wishful 🤔

I have a 2011 model, and autoglas say that they cannot,find the glass replacement for my windscreen....and it is 4 weeks now with no luck. I am looking for advice on how to contact  Toyota in Japan to find out this info. Crack growing bigger by the day....yikes. Any advice?

I have a Gen 1 facelift.

 

Autoglass fitted a new screen, took about three weeks.

 

Fortunately covered by my insurance otherwise the cost would have been very expensive.
