Either pay the glass deductible or pay out of pocket. I was quoted around $460 for a replacement glass for my winter beater, and that's a regular windshield I think it was somewhere around $1,100 for those with the rain sensors.

The other alternative is to find a used windshield and have a mobile shop install it.

You don't even need to deal with ICBC yourself.
Go to Speedy Glass / Broco Glass
Shop who are ICBC authorized Express Windshield replacement center.

I think there is no tax on the deductible so it's legit.
