Getting a windshield replacement (it's a *$^% rabbit hole getting the right glass/frit from the aftermarket but that's another story) and thought I'd drop this here for interest people. The rubber strip at the top comes attached to the replacement windshield, the part number is VW 370 5G0 845 132
I personally got my windshield replaced for my 20 Jetta at West Houston VW. They charged me $1400 upfront. However, after filing a claim with Geico, they reimbursed me up to $920. So essentially i paid $480 for OEM Glass installed and calibrated. IMO that is way better than going through safelite
Replaced mine earlier this year on an SEL-P after a rock chip spread. Yes you will need calibration performed on the camera and sensors that work in conjunction with the camera.
Replaced my Glass I had had my windshield replaced when I took delivery of the car. The front glass was scratched. Appears someone wipe down the glass when detailing and scuffed it up. Dealer installed OEM glass and no alignment was required. The bill was $600 but the dealer took care of. Everything works fine.
I've driven VWs for a long time now and I've always thought their glass was more susceptible to chips than other brands I've owned. Stone chips/cracks are pretty easy to get in VW glass.
in the last 13 months of owning an ID.4 I've had 4 cracks, 2 requiring replacement. All cracks have been with OEM VW glass installed at the dealer. I'm at the point where I'm afraid my insurance will drop me if I make any more claims.
I’ve had 3 windshields replaced. My current windshield is now chipped in 2 spots. I’ve given up.
Just have a couple rock chips now in my windshield, one is quite bad. Luckily, they haven’t cracked yet but I did have to replace my windshield earlier this year.
cracked the windshield right away must be junk
on windshield #2 after tractor kicked up gravel from side of highway. Was surprised as I never had that experience after driving many cars for decades.
