Discovery 3 Panoramic roof. Cracked. Where to get a quote.
My roof has been cracked, resembling a spider since I have had my D3. I know some people have had it done with glass cover on their insurance, mine does not cover it. Maybe I can try looking at the small prints on the quotes next time.
But has anyone paid for it to be done before? If so, where? I would like a real quote to see what I am looking at as I can't find a definitive answer online! This always gets put to the bottom of the maintenance list but one day maybe it will bite me in the ar#e!!!D3 Tonga HSE 2005

DIY I did a Freelander easy enough, hardest job is getting the old one off.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

DaveDisco,
One thing I will point out is that if you have HSE the BT module/Aerial on top is screwed down with security screws (7 sided I believe). This is not a normal tool and may require to be sourced before the work can be done.
Just a quick note from my experiences!!!!!! Took about 1/2 day to change. Also make sure you get the correct roof glass - there are two variants I believe.
Good Luck
