Booking the work for the 9-3
This page covers windshield repair for the 2000 Saab 9-3, and a rental while the car is with us. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
Your 9-3, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking the work
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
A rental while we work
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
How long it takes
Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
What goes into a quote
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
