But I will say I've taken some big hits in the Z and not a chip.

Joe's windshield cracked a while back. They wanted to replace it with an aftermarket windshield. He had to yell and yell at them that it was a HUD windshield on a 60k car and they weren't putting anything aftermarket on it. He finally found someone who said they'd do it for like $40 more than what he was going to get paid through insurance.

All I asked for was OEM. Wonder what the differences are in price.

*mlee* · 08-15-2013, 12:53 PM

I just called the glass company I use and they offer plain OEM windshield for 359.70. Then HUD + remote start version for 639.96 Both prices includes 8.25% sales tax.

Not sure what remote start has to do with anything but HUD and remote start are the same windshield.

I believe the "Remote Start" windshield has an attachment for the black box to clip on to.

I've had to replace my windshield twice already

*TAG UR IT* · 08-15-2013, 01:30 PM

They asked me if I had remote start. I should have said yes.

CamaroSkooter · 08-15-2013, 01:33 PM

They may be the same price, but they're not the same windshield. Mine will not work with HUD as well as a HUD windshield does. (if that makes sense)

Yup... remote start/hud are one in the same. But like I predicted the price is a lot higher.

PQ · 08-15-2013, 02:04 PM

If it's all on insurance I'd damn sure demand OEM. But if it's out of pocket and a 2010 manual then it doesn't have HUD or remote start right?

Hey Doug! Just saw all the chatter going on about your windshield. Mine just got a rock chip this past Monday coming in to work! I was coming up behind one of those gravel hauling trucks. I usually move over to avoid the inevitable, but this time I wasn't quick enough and BAM!!! The chip is about the size of a quarter, so I was trying to decide whether to replace it or not. Looks like I should....

*TAG UR IT* · 08-15-2013, 03:29 PM

If its not larger than the size of a dollar bill, they most likely will not replace and will want to repair it. Mine is about 8" and goes all the way to the edge of the windshield

CamaroSkooter · 08-15-2013, 05:00 PM

If it cracks and the crack spreads, it means a windshield replacement. If it's just a nick with no cracking, they can fill that in with their special epoxy stuff...

^^^ This... I've had 4 or 5 done and the bigger they get from dime to quarter the more expensive it is. I think I've been paying around 30 bucks here.
