Hi,

New to this forum , so pardon me if I am posting in the wrong section.

Someone broke into my Bimmer(325i 2005) this morning from Driver side Rear window, quater glass (its ridiculous!!). I got up this morning and found it all shattered.
I did call the cops but as usual , they said they cant do much at the moment and would let me know if they find something.

I also called my insurance company (AAA) and filed the claim. Unfrotuntely my deductable is $500 , so I am not sure how cost effective it would work out to be.

Any rough estimate of the # , how much would it cost to me ? that should give me an idea to go with my insurance or not.

My car is still under manufacture's warranty.

I am looking for some suggestions

1.Take it to dealership, but I think it would obvioiusly cost me more to fix there than outside

2. Any good shops for BMW's around in Santa clara or mountian view or San jose where I can get fixed at reasonable price and get quality work done ??

Please share your experiences/thoughts/suggestions

thanks in advance.

Can't help you with where to take it besides a BMW dealership. It may be a bit more expensive but at least you know quality parts are being used.

It definitely should not cost over $200 for a quarter panel window alone.
