Windshield OEM Honda or OEM Mazda
Best $250 I ever spent on my NA Miata bought in Nevada was a new windshield; makes the convertible experience so much better. Otherwise you can see perfectly in every direction except the one you’re headed toward! Highly recommend.
Pros: better convertible experience

I just had the windshield replaced on my CX-50 a two of weeks ago. A local shop handled the install but ordered the glass directly from Mazda. My family’s had bad experiences with aftermarket glass in the past, so that pushed me toward OEM; especially since my car’s less than a year old.
If you’re paying out of pocket, aftermarket could still be the more practical option. I went through my insurance, so it was fully covered, but the total bill came to about $1,700 and the glass took nearly four months to arrive.
Pros: Preferred OEM quality
Cons: Long delivery time

Good luck in this, had a 2018 Accord and had a "cheaper" windshield installed and it never calibrated/worked correctly. went and got the factory 3x the price and calibrated and all is good.
Pros: calibrated and all good
Cons: never calibrated/worked correctly
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
I had a scratch on the windshield a few weeks in, then realized I’d have the same issue as I did in my previous Mazda: poor glass quality that scratches even with the windshield wipers.
Cons: poor glass quality, scratches easily

Had a CX-5 and now a CX-50. It's pretty much a new windshield per year. They crack and chip on every hit.

I’m on my second windshield with a CX-50 as well. I think the factory windshield just may not be that great.
Cons: factory windshield not great

I've owned this vehicle a little over 3 months. This will be the second time I'm replacing it... yeah, I'd say this windshield is weak..
Cons: weak windshield, multiple replacements
