I have PPG glass on my car. It was replaced by the previous owner after a large rock shattered it. I'm fine with it and it's comparable to the OEM glass on my old GS.

I'm glad this came back up, I forgot to post a follow-up to my story with the glass shop...
So the Pilkington glass developed a stress crack after only a few days. started at the top edge, dead center over the rear view mirror and worked almost all the way down.

The shop handled it well and got me right in to have PPG glass put in. I think the PPG is a little better, it has fewer ripples in it.

Sad thing is, 2 weeks after that, I got a stone chip right in the center of my view
(Redneck road crews and their F*ing chip 'n seal)

wtf? you'll can get windshields installed for 150? here they want like 350+ and i think the oem one is like 750. i wanna replace mine, well no i don't, i just wanna get rid of that ANNOYING air that someone didn't seal right. it doesn't leak thanks to me and some clear caulk BUT u get above 50 and all you hear is wind noise. gives me a headache.....

I got my insurance company to take care of mine. I am getting OEM. Hopefully they will get back to me soon. I cant believe OEM glass is 750ish.
