Windshield OEM Volkswagen or CARGLASS

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.

I just replaced the windshield on my 2004. It cast $816 (parts $612, labor $150, tax $53).

Well, my windshield has been replaced! I am wondering though... Did they install a right hand drive windshield? LOL, I don't even think that there would be one in the country, but this is VW . If you look you will notice that the VW logo is now on the driver\u2019s side.

Work was done at Carglass Spaanse Polder. First of all, they couldn't mount the rainsensor. Would do it later... When driving the car home, the most terrible lights went on and off, the car stopped, would not start anymore and had to be towed to the Dealer. The cause of this all was a (earth?) cable that had been cut when removing the windshield.

Yes I too have experienced the windshield cracking right down the center from the top behind the rearview mirror. The dealer told me that it must have been a rock but there was definitely no point of impact and it cracked while parked in a parking lot at work.

The OEM windshields are very weak and prone to rock chips. My 07 3.6 4motion wagon got several chips within the first year of owning it. my 08 3.6 4motion wagon also got a chip within the first month of owning it. My BMW 328i have been hit harder (i.e. going faster speeds) and never had a chip. the shop that patched both of my wagons up said they work on many vw's with chips. They say VW uses a thinner glass to lower the weight, thus causing it to chip easier.

The front windshield does suck Had mine replaced after two weeks of ownership.
