Suggestion
My son replaced his 944 windshield for $275, I can't imagine the 986 would be much more if at all.

After that you'll learn to put a big thick folded towel down against the windshield before you change the blades.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Went for nice 1 hour drive this morning after changing the plugs and oil. Rocky ran great.
Stopped and had new tires put on, now Rocky feels great on the highway.
got caught in a little rain noticed I need new wiper blades. Stopped picked up wiper blades and smashed my windshield
Swing the arm up to replace the wiper blade. Remove the wiper blade. Accidently hit the wiper arm w/ no blade on it and the spring tension snaps it down on the windshield. Nothing but spring loaded metal wiper arm against the windshield. Ouch!
It's pretty self-critiquing...
After that you'll learn to put a big thick folded towel down against the windshield before you change the blades.
Ask me how I know...
Wow, didn't know the windshield would break so easily. When I had my winter tires installed I went ahead and had them put new wiper blades on at the same time. Glad I did and now I know from now on to be very careful and use your towel method.
I feel your pain.
When I was pulling the Boxster out of the repair bay at the local indy this morning, I cut the turn too short and dented/scraped the right rear quarter panel. All my fault. Dang, dang, dang!
I almost always place a towel or roll of paper towels under the arm. Today I was rushing a little. Dooh.
Sorry to see I'm not the only one having a bad day.
Sorry to hear about your windshield!
I sure lucked out last month. The tarp covered, snow piled wood stack fell over against the Boxster. Freaked out until I was able to dig enough snow away to move her. Not a mark or dent anywhere. My stars were sure aligned! I don't park there anymore (duh
!).
$100 (comprehensive deductible on my State Farm insurance). I doubt you will get one replaced professionally for $275. I think $500-700 is more like it (not OEM glass).
