I had my e90 with bmw logo changed after a crack at 186,000 miles. I pushed for the oem glass maker that was Pilkington. I made sure to have them order the correct glass, made sure it had the correct factory tint at the top and it had the correct color of tint too.

Pros: correct factory tint, correct color
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 186000 km

I had my windshield replaced recently though my insurance, they tinted it (70% ceramic) for free and installed Pilkington glass for free. Not sure what the OEM is but Pilkington is aftermarket that's as good if not better than any OEM glass, many have reported it seems stronger where you wont get chips quite as easily.

Pros: as good as OEM, seems stronger

I replaced mine with an OEC. Didn't need to be recalibrated. Didn't have issues and it's been 2 years

Pros: no issues for 2 years, no recalibration
Vehicle: Toyota

Pilkington glass is my go to for any older Toyota as they were the oem supplier for most cars. They\u2019ll also accept glass back as defective if it doesn\u2019t calibrate.

Pros: accept glass back
Cons: defective if doesn’t calibrate
Vehicle: Toyota Avalon

The glass we’re on now is a Pilkington, replaced and calibrated at a shop closer to home. This glass has lasted 3x longer than the others combined and recently took a strike from a nickel-sized rock :)

Pros: lasted 3x longer, resisted rock strike

Don't get the Subaru glass. It sucks. It's thin and cracks easily. Try to get a Pilkington replacement if you can. Much better! My Subaru glass lasted less than a year before cracking. I've had the Pilkington for two now and have taken a handful of rocks off of it. Still looks good as new.

Pros: Pilkington much better, looks good
Cons: Subaru glass sucks, thin
