I literally just went to safelite through my insurance company last Thursday to get my windshield fixed on my A5 and I just paid my deductible and it was replaced with an OEM windshield. Easy peasy.
Pros: OEM windshield installed, easy process
Vehicle:
Audi A5
With HUD it’s always better to get OEM glass so you don’t deal with distortion of the image.
Pros: no image distortion, better with HUD
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
I got OEM glass and my dealership told me to go to Safelite. I paid my glass deductible only. All my recalibrations are holding up for 2+ years.
Pros: recalibrations holding up, long-term reliability
Just make sure to say you want OEM glass, not whatever aftermarket one they might try to force you into.
Pros: OEM glass recommended
Cons: aftermarket glass not recommended

Gonna be at least $2k+ for OEM windshield. They have to calibrate it again that’s why. Aftermarket is probably $1k or less but I don’t recommend getting an aftermarket one. Go OEM.
Pros: OEM recommended
Cons: aftermarket not recommended, expensive
Vehicle:
Audi S6
got an exact OEM replacement glass with all the sensors, etc back working 100% perfect with no issues now after 2.5 years with that replacement.
Pros: working 100% perfect, no issues

I had the windshield on my S5 replaced a couple years ago and the non Audi brand “OEM equivalent” windshield the shop installed first messed up the image, it was a double image out of focus. When they replaced it with the Audi branded OEM windshield the heads up was good again.
Pros: correct HUD image
Vehicle:
Audi S5
Everything works as expected still, I swear it’s quieter on the highway now too and no leaks…obviously but look I was paranoid of anything less than a precise install.
Pros: works as expected, quieter on highway, no leaks
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Got OEM glass, no more distortion, much more quiet.
Pros: no distortion, much quieter
