Rock Chips in Windshield - DIY Fix

I picked up a few small chips when a highway sanding truck was spreading small stones instead of sand while traveling through Pennsylvania. Has anyone had luck using any of the DIY fixes versus bringing it to a repair shop? Went to Safelite and was quoted $175 to put resin into the two small chips. I'm hoping someone has had success in fixing it themselves. Thanks, guys.

 

I did it on an old Range Rover with one of those DIY epoxy injection suction cup type kits. It last for years and was still good when I sold the truck. The windshield saw everything from -60°F to 110°F and didn’t crack any further.

 

Have used Super glue in the chip and seems to last a long time. Why not buy some 2 part clear epoxy and fill it yourself.

 

My insurance will repair a chip with no out of pocket expense for me. I had to have it done to my F150. They found 1-2 more tiny chips that I hadn't even noticed. It wasn't perfect, you could still see the repair if you looked hard. But a couple of years later I got another chip. Was told that they could only repair so many chips. My windshield was considered structurally unsound.

They use epoxy. If your insurance won't cover it you have nothing to lose by trying yourself.

I had to pay after the next one. It would have been $500 out of pocket for one with the F150 LOGO made into it, or $350 for one with no LOGO. I chose no LOGO.

I recently picked up a chip in my Tacoma. Was behind a dump truck on the interstate. He was empty but had been driving on a muddy road. He hit a bump in the road and large chunks of dried mud fell to the pavement creating a dust cloud that I drove through. Apparently, there were a few decent size rocks in the mud.

I haven't decided what to do. It's on the passenger side near the edge. I'm thinking of just leaving or making it a DIY project until it gets worse, then replace the windshield. My old truck is just a beater at this point so a minor chip doesn't bother me.
