yeah, it's $1k deductible now... oof
Back in the spring, my wife's ST got a rockchip on the way back home from TX. Our insurance has $0 out of pocket for replacement glass, so I made a schedule with Safelite. I inquired about getting an OEM one and they said sure, but, they have to order it and there is no ETA on when it can arrive, as they did not have any in stock right now. So far no issues with the aftermarket glass and everything works as expected.

recalibration is kind of a joke. the camera doesnt sit on the glass nor do any of its connections. if its OEM glass you are getting the same transparency as you had before so its not like the camera system needs to be calibrated for the new transparency. the only time you need recalibration is if the car has been in an accident or they knock the camera when taking/replacing the glass.
