Windshield - absolutely. I was thinking of getting it but procrastinated…literally got my first windshield incident at 25K miles. I had to pay $500 out of pocket plus $250 for a rental.
Pros: absolutely worth it
Cons: expensive out of pocket
Mileage: 40233 km
I didn\u2019t get many clean the camera warnings, but I could see the haze and would save footage from the camera when I thought haze would be a problem and I could see flashes of light completely block the camera. I cleaned the windshield and it seems like FSD is so much more confident overall and I trust it a lot more.
Pros: FSD more confident
Cons: hardest part mirror removal
Insurance covered for the OEM windshield.
Pros: OEM windshield
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
My Model Y 2026 became sorta like this so I used a razor and I was able to scrape some. And I used a microscope to see what it was and couldn’t figure out what it was.
Turns out it was tiny particles of microfiber being stuck due to static and it was very difficult to get off, because it isn’t glue or just sitting there, but stuck there by static electricity. U can’t feel it, and can’t wipe off with ur finger.
I used monitor cleaning spray because they have anti-static stuff on it. Then used Invisible Glass. And they came off.
Pros: particles came off with special spray
Cons: microfiber particles stuck by static, difficult to remove
I had same experience… a small rock chip expanded into a foot long crack in under a week.
Cons: chip expanded quickly
I finally went aftermarket for the battery and windshield replacement that last time and they did seem like upgrades. If you're having issues, don't go back to OEM replacements given that they're garbage.
Pros: aftermarket upgrades
Cons: oem replacements garbage
