Insulated Glass vs. Non Insulated glass?????
Hello all,
I got a few quotes for my A8 OEM front windshield. Since my car has the warm weather package = insulated front windshield which would cost $427.71 vs $355.xx for Non insulated one.
Are these prices good? What's the significant difference between the 2?
Thanks,

Re: Insulated Glass vs. Non Insulated glass?????
good price for insulated glass (if it really is a true OEM type). As for regular, not that good. I got a "after market" windshield installed for $258.00. Mind you that they used a new seal, of course, but reused the outer trim. This trim alone cost about $150 - $225.

Thanks guys
So insulated glass keeps the heat out or something?
How can you tell when they bring the insulated glass or non- and install them, is there any marking on the glass itself?
I got a new quote for 282.74 NON insulated glass. Will the solar sunroof still work with non-insulated glass?
My deductible is $500.00, I'm paying this one out of my pocket...:-(

theraudi1-about the molding
They're quoting me extra $225 if I need these moldings. My car moldings are perfect, if they take off the windshield and damage it, they have to pay for it right? Should I be there when they removes the molding? Are you talking about the chromes on the sides of the glass?
Thanks,
Thanks,

Rearview mirror glued to the windshield?
How do they remove the rear view mirror without breaking it? What should I watch for when they do it? I just hope they know what they're doing, not scratching the hood and break the windshield wipers, mirrors and stuffs.
