Windshield Pictures Non OEM

[xim]

Might be too close to the edge for them to touch it though.

My Progressive Ins covers replacement - I made sure of that when I bought the Bronco - had a jeep years ago and I think I was up to 9 windshields when it got wrecked

I got the safelite non-oem last time on our Jeep. Very disappointed with how it looks. Seems like the tint is less and missing the rest of the stuff that comes with the OEM. Not sure if that helps for the Bronco question. We also just got a crack a week or so ago in our Bronco. Typically we wait until there are more than one crack or the crack has spread too much.

I had the non OEM windshield on my JK and If I remember correctly the cost was around $100 total. I purchased decals that mimic the OEM "easter egg" and saved a bunch of money in the process. You can do the same thing for the Bronco

Ha ha, you guys caring about a MAP sticker and not the BRONCO lettering. Cracks me up. You really want a reminder of where the truck came from? From a bunch of guys crying about pay, but totally ignoring the quality of their work?

Yeah I'll take the lettering over a MAP sticker any day.

Consider getting Exo-Shield to help reduce cracks

PA is very anal about anything on the windshield, so I bought the Aeroskin hood protector after my second windshield in the first 6 months. I should not "Jinx" myself but last 18 months 26,000 miles no broken windshield and far less bug splatter!!!!!

DE is the same, even though I see plenty of front tint around town, exo-shield tho is perfectly clear, can't tell it's on unless I focus near the edges

What is the MAP sticker? Made with pride in Michigan?

I have my MAP sticker, its going with my monroney sticker on the wall. I am holding out for Gorilla glass to make one for the 6G.

By MAP sticker, was that one of the two stickers in the top, right passenger side? One of them was oval with green border or letters?

yes that one, its usually crooked.

I think that was the first thing I took off (I had two).

Echo this.Cost wise, it makes no sense.

Here is a non oem logo you may find from safelite.

Makes no sense to make a windshield in China; this has long sense gotten out of hand.

I sure hope the OEM glass is made at a shop in Michigan or at least someplace in the country.

IF the OEM costs $400 more or whatever, I’d pay it.

Laugh away then. Yes, I care that my Ford was made in Michigan by American Auto workers. Better that then being made in Mexico or China. I‘m happy with my Bronco and proud of the work the men and women at the MAP did to build it for me, so if a sticker is my way of saying thank you and appreciate keeping Ford American, then tag me a homer any day.

If you can afford a shiny new Bronco, bet at some point you cried about pay as well. Interesting how self focused those with means can become with such short memories, then like to complain that nothing is built in America anymore. The irony…..

Lot’s of Toyotas and Kias for sell, maybe check them out.

A Gorrila Glass windshield sounds interesting. Do you know where they’re made for other vehicles?

Aren't you all high and mighty?

I will buy what I will buy, could care less what you think. And to top it off, have owned all Fords, 4 of them have been Bronco's. But I will call a spade a spade. And in my opinion, there have been some pretty bad quality issues coming off the line since launch. But by all means, continue to live in your fantasy world bud.

For the curious, you don't have to settle for Safelite garbage glass, or the OEM Ford glass that is clearly made from butter:

Crystal clear, doesn't pit nearly hardly at all, and seems to take most of the hits that shattered my OEM glass without a care.

As for losing my 'Made in michigan' sticker, when I got my first windshield replaced, I couldn't decide if I wanted to put that sticker on the giant paint defect on the door, or the dent in the hood that I had from the factory. So I just let it go.
