Pilkington is an OEM supplier so I wouldn\u2019t be too worried; my old Volvo had a factory Pilkington windshield.

Pros: OEM supplier

I have an 18. I've had my windshield replaced. Replacement glass from Pilkington, made at same factory as the original VW glass. Was around $300-400 installed. No camera calibration required.

Pros: no camera calibration required
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Since the last time I posted, Anthony installed the Pilkington FW4119 glass on my car. He was right--it was completely free of any distortions, haziness, or warps.

Pros: free of distortions, no haziness
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf
Part number: FW4119

I find it to be much stronger than oem windshields on these cars and cheaper too. Had my cracked oem one replaced with Pilkington glass by an independent glass guy for $260

Pros: much stronger, cheaper
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Pilkington and Sekurit are the brands you want to go for. Pilkington is Canadian and Sekurit is German. lots of other cheap glass out there that is going to suck. try to request a brand of glass.

Pros: Pilkington, Sekurit brands
Cons: cheap glass sucks

They put yet another in, and it also cracked soon after. They insisted they saw an impact location at the edge of the crack and wouldn't cover replacement so I had to pay for it. I insisted they use a non-Safelite window, so they installed a Pilkington. Twice as expensive, but no problems since.

Pros: no problems since
Cons: cracked soon after
Vehicle: BMW

I had a Pilkington windshield installed a few weeks ago. I agree, the fitment isn't the greatest. On the OEM and Guardian I had. I could fit my sunshade between the glass and dash, no such luck on the Pilkington.

Cons: fitment isn't the greatest
