The glass we’re on now is a Pilkington, replaced and calibrated at a shop closer to home. This glass has lasted 3x longer than the others combined and recently took a strike from a nickel-sized rock :)
Pros: lasted 3x longer, resisted rock strike
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
Pilkington>Carlex
Pilkington is waaaaay superior to whatever OEM supplier they use. Porsche, Land Rover, and many other luxury brands use Pilkington for their glass, and it holds up very well! My Cayenne's windshield is absolutely battered, and it's still on its original glass from 2012.
Pros: holds up very well
Cons: windshield is battered
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayenne
2015 and got a plinkton front windshield after oem cracked within a year, in all these years it’s taken quite a few rocks with no damage at all, I’m quite happy with it.
Pros: no damage from rocks
You are totally good with Pilkington glass though I had Safelite replace my old Jetta with that brand and it’s as good if not better than OEM glass.
Pros: good as OEM glass
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
After our OEM windshield was demolished, it was replaced with Pilkington auto glass. And that Pilkington glass is FAR superior to OEM Subaru glass!
Pros: far superior to OEM
Vehicle:
Subaru
after 10+ years its full of scratches and small dents. Around 600EUR for Pilkington OEM.
Cons: full of scratches, small dents
The last 2 pilkington I've used for a Toyota did not recalibrate, used pgw for both afterwards and they recalibrated instantly.
Pros: recalibrated instantly
Cons: did not recalibrate
Vehicle:
Toyota
Don't get the Subaru glass. It sucks. It's thin and cracks easily. Try to get a Pilkington replacement if you can. Much better! My Subaru glass lasted less than a year before cracking. I've had the Pilkington for two now and have taken a handful of rocks off of it. Still looks good as new.
Pros: Pilkington much better, looks good
Cons: Subaru glass sucks, thin
