Does any one know who can replace the glass on my Bird without sending to the factory. It still works fine but the chipped glass obstructs vision. Thanks for any help.

How bad is the chip? Is it something that the resins for windshields can fix? Otherwise, I think maybe one of the screen repair shops would be worth a try. May void any further warranty.

It's hard to replace, since the actual display is epoxied to the acrylic exterior "glass". Trust me....busted one of my birds with a 1ounce tungsten. I was just gonna mold it into my dash with a new lexan screen cover and gave up for now....lol. Screw it.
