Driving home one night last week and heard the dreaded 'thwack' of a stone (or perhaps a rock ) hitting the screen, thought I had got away with it but soon discovered a chip/crack just below the drivers line of sight

Had this before on a previous car and got Autoglass to repair it, but it was by no means a case of invisible mending (did not get any worse, but the chip was still clearly visible)

Anyone had this done on their S, can you recommend any good repairers ?

That's very bad luck indeed!
I had exactly the same only 10 miles from home last November just before the day I put the S away for the winter. I was following an aggregate tipper truck and they have done screens before for me.
My insurance sent out the Autoglass man who made an invisible repair with the fluid. I have to search to find the injury now.
He said that the general rule of thumb is, if the cracking coming off the main impact spot is bigger than a 50 pence piece, then it's a new screen.
I had that last year on my A6, also with Autoglass, and that man also told me the same.
The most important thing for you to ensure if it is a new screen, is that the repairer fits ONLY a genuine Honda screen.

But the Honda screens are crap. I was talking to soneone who'd had a Pilkington put in and it was much better (Brian possibly). Mine's got so much pitting you can barely see through it if you're driving towards the winter sun.

I'd just get a new one fitted under the insurance. I've got a Pilkington glass screen now, but alas that lasted 6 days before it got chipped again. Most upset.
