Since the last time I posted, Anthony installed the Pilkington FW4119 glass on my car. He was right--it was completely free of any distortions, haziness, or warps.

I find it to be much stronger than oem windshields on these cars and cheaper too. Had my cracked oem one replaced with Pilkington glass by an independent glass guy for $260
When I went to my dealer in NoVa, they recommended a indie guy. He came to my place, replace it with an OEM Pilkington w/ Rain sensor in about 3 hours.
If you have to replace the windshield do not get an aftermarket one. Make sure it\u2019s OEM. I had a Mercedes and a SAAB which both had to have their windshields replaced. The Mercedes I bought new and the rain sensors worked great from day one. I had to replace the windshield after an accident. The insurance company had an aftermarket windshield installed and the rain sensors never worked right after that.
I'm renting an Altima, and the window cracked just sitting in the driveway. It started from the edge of the window next to the VIN. It has 9750 miles and I saw another post where the windshield broke itself at 9450 miles and another around 10k; it seems pretty sketchy that they so many break around the same mileage. The rental car company is trying to get my insurance to pay, but I feel like this is a factory defect that should be covered by the bumper-to-bumper.
Hopefully you have better luck than I did. Had similar crack in a brand new 5 series(the car was only a few months old when it happened)and they wouldn\u2019t cover it. I had to go through my insurance and pay a small deductible. No other company did OEM BMW windshields in my area so I had to go the same dealership to get it done. Cost was around $2500
Ive had issues with it. Worse than FYG. I prefer PGW and PLK. Moldings have been fine for me, but its always the brackets and recalibrations that get me with the Sisecam glass.
Sisecam is shit, I’d say it’s worse than custom, FY, or XYG, maybe even worse than the old Piss Poor Glass.
Subaru glass is trash. There's no way anyone in their right mind would ever use another subaru windshield if they weren't forced to. The OE windscreens have fine debris or bubbles or something in them that makes them look like they have been sandblasted for 200k highway miles when they're brand new. It's actually dangerous when driving into the sun. And this is the case on every one of their models. Subaru glass is total trash.
