Does anyone know where I can get a new windscreen from? Mine has a rather large crack in it and I would like to get it replaced. Can normal glass places get the glass for the sx?

Phone all the glass companies. Tell them it is not for an insurance claim.

Ya, unfortunately I bought my sx with the cracked glass so I can't claim from insurance. If my insurance company had to pay, the price wouldn't really be much of an issue ;)
