Windshield Pilkington or OEM FORD

First time all went well, they put oem glass in and it was fast and looked great.

They replaced the windshield on my 03 Mach 1 and it looks perfect.

They installed factory glass perfectly on my Mustang. Was honestly one of the best and easiest experiences I’ve had with any company

My 07 had OEM replacement done 12 years ago and it’s still great. Zero leaks.

They specifically asked if I wanted OEM glass with the Ford logo or if aftermarket was okay. Iirc the price was the same either way so of course I chose the OEM one, it was actually a pretty good experience.

Went to the local glass shop. Bought the pilkington as it’s a hair thicker and I know other OEMs use them. Night and day. Pilkington glass appears way clearer with less distortions. I’ve driven about 1.5 k miles since replacement and eyesight is dead on- about 500 miles local, 1k highway. No issues, works great in rain, and no random stops or the dreaded eyesight disabled logo.

When you get your first replacement, don’t get an OEM get a Pilkington brand.

I would rather buy the original BMW/Pilkington windshield from the junkyard and get it installed than get one replacement Chinese sh*t from insurance coverage. Replacements are not as thick, they are wavy and yep in general - crap.

Had a chip a week in and after 7 months big spider web crack\u2026.

Mine was just a little tap when I was going down I-75. Pulled over and couldn't even find the point of impact. Went out to breakfast the next morning and it was fine. When we came out, there was a 8\" horizontal crack. Upon close inspection, we saw the tiny little ding that started it. These windshields are crap.
