i can see it si insurable if when installed it has warrenty so the insurnce company could look at it and say it was done properly. can you just say some kid stole them and you swent to go to work and your hood flew up?

i know the feeling...good thing i don't give a rats *** about my car (well for now ). i just push the hood down, put the pins back in and got my windshield fixed (paid for that out of my own pocket since it was my own damn fault).

not sure if insurance will cover it since you have a deductable of some sort and only after the deductable is met will insurance pay for the rest.
