Hi all, I finally had the IR windshield fitted. As expected, so far so good. What engaged my curiosity is that the bottom right corner windshield data shows IR/A, rather than only IR.
Thanks. The one with the purple windshield is less sunny inside. I rarely need to use my sun visors.
Have a '12 SE with 42,000 miles, most of which are from winter driving (think road gravel, salt and sand). We have no pits, and from having driven this same route for 30+ years, we have to conclude this glass is the best we've seen.
Spotless. After a week: all well.
I am still happy with the work and was covered by insurance.
My replacement screen Tech from the windscreen specialist company knew exactly what to do, had reference to the correct instructions and his company sourced the exact replacement screen, from VW stock against the car's VIN.
You sure you really want a genuine VW windshield?? In my opinion the damn things are too weak and chip too easily! I think something is wrong with their glass manufacturing over there.
The front windshield does suck Had mine replaced after two weeks of ownership.
I have difficulty seeing through my windsheild when heavy rain is hitting the car while driving. The wipers do no not clear the water fast enough and there seems to be some sort of film that clouds up the glass.
VW Glass is crap. If you look real close at your windshield at the lower passenger side, I guarantee that you will find distortion in the glass. It is also softer than other manufactures glass. I have several small and good size pits on my windshield.
