I got an aftermarket windshield for around $300 and have had no problems with the camera
For manufacturers, Pilkington and PGW (Pittsburgh Glass Works) make the best.
Aftermarket all the way. It's more durable than OEM. If you have an option, Pilkington seems to be the best through various user reports. I went through 3 replacements with my '19 Legacy and aftermarket is definitely better.
Do not replace your windshield with Factory Glass. Get aftermarket glass, preferably Pilkington Glass.
It varies/depends. There are some cheap replacement windshields out there, but in my case, I found one who uses Pilkington glass for my Camry (the OEM supplier), came in at less than half the dealer’s quote, and looks identical to the glass that was on before.
That sounds reasonable. I just had the windshield on my wife’s 2021 Santa Fe Calligraphy replaced (because it failed NH state inspection due to a rock chip in the driver’s line of sight ????). Thompson Auto Glass, the company who handled the replacement and calibration, said the glass itself was $685 and then $250 charge for the calibration. The windshield was made by Pilkington, which is a premium auto glass manufacturer (the OEM replacement windshield on my 2001 BMW M5 is a Pilkington brand).
Safelite did my front and back glass on my 2nd gen thru my insurance . I requested OE glass for both. They had a Toyota windshield in stock, but the sliding rear glass was 30-45 days out of stock, so I went aftermarket.
I feel like the Toyota windshield’s are shit. It was chipped and repaired 3 times before. Then a 4th rock hit it and cracked the whole thing by several feet.
What kind of cheap glass did Toyota use on these 2019+ RAV4?? I keep seeing them cracked.
Just cracked my second windshield on my rav 4 in 3 months.
