Where’s the best place to get a spider crack in a windshield fixed? ---

You don’t fix things like that. You replace the windshield. Call your insurance company and you may be covered. ---

Your insurance co has deals and contacts with local shops, @VOLVO_V70 gives good advice on calling your insurance co first. I had a rock chip my window in the drivers side, had to be replaced, I had a $50 deductible. The insurance co and their glass shop had an arrangement where the shop waived $50 so I paid nothing, the windshield was replaced in my garage. ---

depends on the size and location of the damage A small crack can be repaired . . . But a spider crack sounds rather large You’re probably looking at a new windshield ---

Call auto glass companies, and ask if they have this capability. Tester ---

If the damage is directly in front of the driver’s field of vision, you’re not supposed to fix it, you’re supposed to replace it Only you know where it’s damaged ---

Thanks for the replies. It’s smaller than a dime and on the passenger side. Sorry for being unclear. Spiders are smaller in Michigan I guess. Maybe I should have said small star like crack or chip. ---

I think it refers to the spider web not the spider itself. I have seen small chips done with no problem. Sometimes insurance companies will want to try it first before paying for a windshield, but if it is not obstructing your view, they may not want to pay for it anyway. ---

It depends on your state laws. Look up MI law on line concerning windshield breakage.
