How much can I expect to pay to replace the windscreen in a 75 series?
Anything I should look out for?

Hi Tim,
Not long had some done and I paid $150.00 for then one 75 and one 80 Series.
Had a small mob Classic Windscreens from Cranbourne. They come to my house and did it there.
Do not use those big mobs as they charge like wounded bulls (windscreen O'brien wanted $525.00 for the same)
Also check for rust while screen is out and fix while out with rust converter or some thing similar.

Hi David and Doug, I had a front Patrol screen with tinted band, replaced about 12 months ago by
Sydney Windscreens for $160, they came to my work place. Good professional job and service.. Regards Michael.

Doug, it's still a lot cheaper than the big ones!
I had a similar quote as Will did from WO'B.
They usually say they'll give some sort of extra (useless) cover or sweetner if you make up your mind on
the spot, just so you don't go searching for a better price.
Ended up costing me about $200 for a top-tinted-band windscreen on my GU from another mob, who came to the door.
Yeh, I know, I also paid too much!

Wow, that's all very cheap.
I replaced the windscreen on my 80 series last year in
Adelaide. I got a new rubber seal too (
mine was cracked and leaking) and all up the job was $340. The rubber seal was around $90 so I guess that makes the windscreen $250.
OBriens were a bit more expensive and I used Complete Windscreens in the end. I was very happy with the quality of service and the windscreen has been excellent since.
