My X3 windshield was like $2500 with BMW glass. Cheap aftermarket glass was only a few hundred dollars. I pushed my insurance to pay for the real deal.
Pros: real deal, high quality
Cons: high cost
Vehicle:
BMW X3
Just had mine replaced through the dealership. I could've used safelight, but I didn't want to chance any issues with the HUD, etc.
Pros: avoided HUD issues
Vehicle:
BMW X5
I purchased my 2023 in October of 2022; I have two small chips in my windshield, both occurred within 3 months of ownership. First one was after a month going up a hill into a rocky mountain with very high winds at the time. Second time was maybe 3 months into ownership and it was from on of those large semi trucks carrying gravel lol I’ve been a lot more cautious since but I’ve put off replacing the whole windshield for 2 years.. chips have not gotten any larger but I’m currently in Southern California where the temperature doesn’t fluctuate too drastically so hopefully I can put off a little longer
Pros: chips not growing
Cons: chips easily
Vehicle:
Subaru

Cons: poor durability, frequent breakage, expensive replacement
Vehicle:
