Windshield replacement is just a reality unless your car is a garage queen.
I'm on my third Camaro windshield. Modern windshields are structural members and are glued in. The last time I had a leaky windshield was probably 1980, and it came that way from the factory. This was back when windshields were held in the grooves of giant rubber grommets, not glued. The other side of the grommet was also grooved and held the pinch weld of the window opening. A sloppy pinch weld was the cause of the leak.
If they break the windshield while removing, you will get a nice new one that's not pitted. Again, ignore this comment if your car is a garage queen and so has no pitting.
Not sure about dashboard removal.
