If I was paying for it out of pocket, I would run with a non OEM windshield from Pilkington. They are a premium auto glass manufacturer with better performing glass for UV protection, cooling, sound and durability.
Owner reviews for windshield
Safelite did mine last month for $950 all in. Pilkington glass.
Safelight with Subaru OEM glass cost me $640. No issues 18 months later.
Replaced my cracked windshield. I have Amica insurance with full grace replacement coverage. Simply went to Safelite and explained that I want genuine bmw OE glass. No problem. Just took about a week longer at the time vs generic to get the part in.
For my 21 RAV4 XSE hybrid, it cost $1500…
The new Hyundai windshields are kinda terrible and crack very easily from what I have seen and heard, so honestly you would probably be better off going aftermarket anyways
I was actually happy that it’s not an OEM windshield because mine cracked hella easy and a bunch of people had issues with warping, so I don’t think quality was there to begin with.
Replaced it with OEM ford windshield and was done in a few hours. Got a chip on the way to snow and by the first night it started cracking across middle of vision. Windshield was exact OEM match. Even had the 75 yr sticker lol.
Just got my windshield replaced again for the third time because the previous two had ripples in them, now I got an OEM VW windshield installed and they told me it’s normal to have some slight waves in the windshield. I thought OE or OEM would be better but it’s kinda the same as the other non OE windshields.
I had mine develop a huge crack just from warming up in the morning sun and then me spraying wiper fluid. I read on some forums that it's a common issue with the Ford glass and that it's super thin or something to that affect.
