The SA also told me that going with a non-OEM windshield would mean that the sensor for the automatic windshield wipers wouldn't work anymore. Sounded like BS...can anyone prove or deny this?

Any other problems going with a non-OEM replacement other than maybe a bad fit (as mentioned above)?
Irvine BMW? Either way that price is outrageous. Talk about greedy stealers...

My deductible for a badly sand pitted winshield was $100. I think the bill the mobile installers sent to my insurance co. was about $1,000.

This OEM glass sucks and that has been discussed prior on the forum as well. My E36 M3 had a better looking windshield at 150k miles than this one did at 15k.
