After a few months, I called my insurance back and asked about options. They said I could have the window replaced, but I would have to pay the deductible....a whopping $100. Wish I knew this before I even dealt with a repair. As an FYI, the shop doing the work will probably want to use an aftermarket windshield, but when I asked how much an OEM would cost, it was the same (out of pocket) price...umm, that was a no-brainier. Just FYI.

Thanks, I’m getting a new windshield for a $50 deductible. The company I’m going to use is the shop that my independent Porsche garage uses. I’ll ask him about a Porsche windshield, is there a big difference in quality between OEM and aftermarket? How many manufacturers of Boxster glass are there?
