The Auto Glass Fix Kit
Built for auto glass shops, windshield installers and ADAS calibration technicians.
The leak isn't in the price of the glass — it's in the calibration your insurer's network is supposed to pay for and often doesn't. This kit finds where the money leaks in your own work and gives you the steps and the words to close each one.

The 7 leaks it covers
1 you can close it · 4 the other side owes it · 2 a pro decides
- Tech pay tracked without tracking which work got paid — unpaid calibrations hiddenWhere to look first: On every job ticket, have the tech mark: glass only, glass plus calibration, calibration only, or redo.Keep it from coming back: The ticket box gets filled before the ticket is closed, every time.You can close it
- Calibration redone on someone else's dime after aftermarket glass or brackets failWhere to look first: Log every calibration attempt: vehicle, glass brand (OEM or aftermarket), bracket source, pass or fail, and time spent.Keep it from coming back: On any vehicle with a published carmaker position statement, settle who pays for a failed calibration before you install the glass.The other side owes it
- Network settlements paid below invoice to a 'market' rate the shop never seesWhere to look first: Pull your last 20 network-paid jobs. For each: what you billed, what was paid, and the difference.Keep it from coming back: Before signing or renewing a network agreement, get its price schedule in writing and keep it next to your invoices.The other side owes it
- ADAS calibration done but denied, capped, or folded into the glass price on settlementWhere to look first: Pull this month's invoices and the matching settlements. For each calibration you did, check: is it on the settlement as its own paid line?Keep it from coming back: Get calibration authorized as its own line before the job, and save pre- and post-scans on every calibration.The other side owes it
- Claims run by an administrator tied to the shop's largest competitorWhere to look first: Pull your last 10 claims. Mark which went through a network administrator and which were paid directly.Keep it from coming back: Know, from your own records, what each network pays against your cash price before you renew any network agreement.The other side owes it
- Planning a calibration-bay investment around a federal date that is still unsettledWhere to look first: This isn't money you're losing now - it's a planning trap. The federal automatic-emergency-braking rule (FMVSS 127) is being challenged in court, and as of spring 2026 the Department of Transportation said it was preparing a proposal that…Keep it from coming back: Base equipment decisions on your own monthly calibration count, not on a federal date.A pro decides
- Self-employment tax not set aside from income that arrives with nothing withheldWhere to look first: Look at how you're paid. If it's 1099 or direct from customers, nothing has been held back for tax - including self-employment tax, which is on top of income tax.Keep it from coming back: Move the set-aside out the day money comes in, and keep the quarterly dates on your calendar a couple of weeks ahead.A pro decides

No sign-up, no email. Here is leak 1 of 7 exactly as it appears in the kit, so you can see what you get before you buy.
Tech pay tracked without tracking which work got paid — unpaid calibrations hidden
You can close it- On every job ticket, have the tech mark: glass only, glass plus calibration, calibration only, or redo.
- Also mark whether the calibration was paid as its own line when the settlement came in.
- Each month, for each tech: hours worked and pay, against paid glass jobs, paid calibrations, and unpaid or redone work. (Worked out from your own tickets.)
- Use that to see where the time goes - not to judge your techs, but to see which payers and which glass cause the unpaid work.
The federal wage median is context only.
Your part: Have the techs fill the ticket box, and decide what to change.
MESSAGE - to your techs, starting the new ticket fields: "Team - starting [DATE], every ticket gets one more box: glass only / glass + calibration / calibration only / redo. If a calibration fails the first time, mark it as a redo and note the glass brand. This isn't about grading anyone - it's so we can see which jobs we're doing for free and go after the payers. Thanks. - [YOUR NAME]"
The ticket box gets filled before the ticket is closed, every time.
What this kit can't decide for you: Employee pay decisions are the owner's. No figure promised.
That's 1 of 7. The other 6 come the same way in the kit: steps, words to send, a habit to keep each one closed.

What people in this work look up

Those searches turn up forms, averages and other people's numbers. This kit starts from your own records instead: the 7 places money leaks in this work, where to look first and the words to send to close each one.
What you get for each leak
- Numbered steps to close each leak
- Your part, spelled out
- Words you can use: letters and scripts, ready to send (fill in the brackets)
- A habit that keeps each leak from coming back
- An honest line on what the kit can't decide for you

Questions people ask
Why does ADAS calibration get denied or cut on insurance claims?
Calibrations get denied, capped or folded into the glass price at settlement. The kit shows how to document each one so it stands as its own line.
Do network settlements pay my full invoice?
Often they pay to a 'market' rate the shop never sees. The kit has you compare settlement to invoice on every job and gives you the words to dispute short pays.
Who pays when calibration has to be redone after aftermarket parts?
That cost often lands on the shop. The kit shows how to record what failed and who owes for the redo.
What it can't decide for you
This kit works from your own records. It doesn't give legal, tax, licensing or financial advice, and it never tells you what to charge. Where a CPA, attorney, insurer or state board makes the call, the kit says so and gets your records ready for them.
