Probably about 2 weeks total, but that was because I had to book it in to the garage to get it replaced ... they leave the car standing for 24 hours to let it bond before you can drive the car again ....

You had to leave it standing to bond? They let me drive mine right away.
The screen is used as a structural piece in the car! Has to be allowed to bond before you can drive it!!
You can tell the stresses in the screen from the fact that as I went round a corner, possibly a little quicker than the speed limit would permit, the crack extended by a good 4~5 inches across the screen !!
