Windshield Tesla or Pilkington

I had mine replaced in November by a local shop. They recalibrated eyesight and it works fine. The new windshield is the Plinkington glass which I heard is more durable than the factory.

Imo, pilk is the better glass, but more so for quality control than overall quality. Personally, I install more fuyao than anything. If everything looks good run with it.

HAve had the change approx 2 months ago on my 2016, I did choose Pilkington without the audi marker. Paid 1100€ (Hungary) and until now it is as good as factory one.

For whats its worth, I had mine replaced at Safelite and haven't had any issues 4 months later. They used Pilkington glass which is OEM for BMW. HUD still works great. ACC did need recalibration the next day (City Safety features turned off) but they were able to do it at Safelite with Bosch equipment. I use Pilot Assist for >50% of my driving and it is functioning the same as before.

They put in a Pilkington windshield and calibrated everything for about $700.00. Everything works as it should, the HUD is clear but seems to be a a very slight angle compared to the OEM glass.

I replaced the windshield in my 2022 for $350 all said and done. 3rd party installer outside of Atlanta used Pilkington glass and did not need to recalibrate the Eyesight system. I’ve been driving with the new glass for two months now and have had no issues.

Heb me laten overhalen om een ruit van Pilkington te laten installeren op mijn Golf uit 2020. Lijkt er opzich prima in te zitten en de camera is gekalibreerd en lijkt prima te werken. Ik zag echter dat er iets van lucht achter de ruit, voor de (regen?)sensor zit.

I’ve had to put 3 windshields in my Tesla

my 2021 CR-V just got its windshield cracked like this for some reasons, and it's also from Pilkington

I've had 2 Pilkington windshields installed. Both have distortion at around eye level. Similar to the sensation of having a bifocal lens.
