basically, you have to retint your windscreen cause they going to drill a tiny hole to repair the crack.

Not really, they will fix it from outside of your windscreen, so you don't need to re-tint. I done mine without re-tint.
And the price they quote is base on the length of the crack, and they give warranty too, dunno 5 years or half year, can't really remember, have to check back. But not sure whether is it the same shop that TS went. The one I went is located at PJ area, same roll with a well known banana leaf rice restaurant.

I think I know the side effect, you would get some weird colours after some time on the screen, some rainbow colour thingy when viewed under different angle, like soap water.

Oww, that crack is kinda big to me. Mine is just a slight small crack (inside crack), but I didn't bother to repair it since it is unvisible unless you go near.

If damage is not on purpose, the loss is still payable. As consumer, the duty is to proof the loss and then it is up to the insurer to determine whether loss is payable or not. If not, insurer will have to give reason why and the onus shift back to consumer to proof otherwise.

Well, for windscreen you can get separate windscreen cover for your comprehensive policy by paying an extra premium. If the windscreen is broken/chipped you can still claim from the insurer. However, if no extra premium is paid but you still intend to make a claim, the downside is that you lose your NCD.

I can tell u the name of the shop in PM no prob wan.
Another thing to note (according to the shop fellow), once you got the crack, you need to do the treatment ASAP. Say like in 1 day. The longer you take to fix it, the not "nicer" it will be. Anyway, you can ask the shop fellow to explain more for you.

roughly where d location of the shop?
