I have a few Corrado windshields I’m looking to unload. I imported them from Europe, they are Pilkington and I have them listed at $750US or $1000CAN.
for Hondas and Acuras that need recalibration with the ADAS camera systems, It’s best to use PILKINGTON. It seems to have a lower Failure rate.
There are differences, as you found, in the manufacturer, but VW uses different glass manufacturers in different parts of the world. I, myself, have the roof, front & rear windshield made by Pilkington, and the side windows are from Saint Gobain.
If you go with aftermarket at a place like Safelite, make sure to get the Pilkington brand if you have a HUD
Pilkington glass has never let me down, except their distribution centers. A bit of the best and the worst bundled into one name.
I just got my Impreza windshield replaced with Pilkington after seeing comments in various Subaru subs. The glass is just okay, it has a weird but minor horizontal wavy spot and no idea if it’ll actually be more durable in the long run. It did calibrate fine and EyeSight seems to be working without issue.
'22 and on my third windshield. One was covered by Subaru and one had to pay insurance deductible. I had both Carlex and Pilkington glass and both cracked
Safelight used a cheap crap grade of pilkington - they said it was OEM, it was not and cracked the first week from a small rock.
my 2021 CR-V just got its windshield cracked like this for some reasons, and it's also from Pilkington
I've had 2 Pilkington windshields installed. Both have distortion at around eye level. Similar to the sensation of having a bifocal lens.
