Hello everyone, I just wanna ask if I must repair or replace the wind shield. It has a crack for about 2.5 cm. :eusa_doh:

use something to fill it, maybe a toothpick and crazy glue and dab it to keep it from getting bigger

It's probably fine if there's no leakage, etc. But if it gets bigger you should replace the glass.

Not sure what the rules are in your State, but if the crack obstrusts the driver's view at all, usually it needs to be replaced or the vehicle will not pass safety.

You may also want to talk to a Auto Glass repair shop, some cracks can be repaired if they are within a certain range.

If you live somewhere where the temperature fluctuates, at least get it sealed
either take it in or do it yourself. If water gets into the crack and freezes you'll be in trouble
