That's about right for OEM glass. You can get third-party glass for about $300 installed.

Is this out of pocket (cost to you)?
Does the windsheild say "toyota/Lexus" or it is a oem equivalent?
Any visual (not superficial but when you look through the glass) abnormatilies/abberations .. specially where the glass has a curvature?

Based on posts in other CL forum, it seems PPG are good windsheilds.
