I am having my windshield replaced by Safelite. It will be a OEM windshield. Is there anything that I should pay attention to ?Is the rain sensor easily removed? Are there shims under the glass?
Thanks.
The only thing I would say is too ask safelite to send a tech who has done bmw windshields. I did for both of mine. They get special training for that. I remove my a pillars before they arrive, and reinstall myself.
There is a lot to pay attention to - atakordie probably knows the most about it.
I got bmw to do it for me...and it cost half almost half the value of my car...gotta love insurances....
Any ideas how the A Pillars come off or the rain sensor?
How is it re-attached?
Thanks
But it won't be the genuine BMW Securit glass. When I had my 300ZX windshield done by them, I was told that it's unlikely that glass is made anymore and 3rd party would be used. I saved this doc for when I get my glass replaced. The best thing you can do in my opinion is call like one or two BMW dealers in your area and ask them who they use for glass replacement.
