My just-out-of-warranty '03 MINI developed the classic stress crack inside the glass of the front windshield over night. After reading so many threads about them, I considered myself very lucky to not have had any problems with my windshield!

Anyway, I've just been passed around from dealer to dealer on the phone like a hot potato. Decided to go the insurance route and it is getting replaced next wednesday. After hearing scare stories about cracked plastic pillar covers and sub-standard optics, I'm really dreading it!

Do I have any sort of comeback if the glass is poor quality (rippled etc)?
