Window reflectors damage to glass
I purchased a full set of team heko wind deflectors to my 2008 xc70.
About 6 months ago when the rear drivers side window was going up it automatically come back down again and had the little metal clip stuck in between the glass. It's now left visable damage. Last week it happened to the other read side. Any ideas if this is fixable or would it be a replacement only. Iv contacted heko but no response. Screenshot_20200625-083323_Gallery.jpg

Looks like you have laminated glass which might be thicker than the normal glass hence the reason why it is sticking in the clips.

Yeh my neighbour said about laminated glass. He said it's usually in high end vehicles only

Deffo not fixable, I have broken many a double glazing, Citroen, Merc etc when working at defleet centers, they normally crack straight down, they cannot take much pressure at all, hope you can get it repaired under windscreen damage on your insurance, they are not cheap
