Gorilla Glass. Yes or No?

[xpcdoojk]

Should I replace my windshield that cracked with standard glass or gorilla glass?

They say the Gorilla glass is lighter. Does anyone know what the windshield weighs in both forms?

Thanks!!!!

I broke 2 Mopar windshields. I just installed Gorilla glass...... I can tell you this -- if you install regular glass, you will keep braking them.... so, trying Gorilla glass was a no brainer for me.

Thanks. Kind of mirrors my thinking. Although this is my first replacement.

Any other opinions out there?

I'm right at a year now with HGP Gorilla Glass, another 15K miles or so, and zero chips/dings/damage. I have heard HARD hits but no harm, no foul.

Different laminate order than the Mopar glass, but the core concept is a winner for me.

This is like asking if we like money or not… get the gorilla glass. It’s top end and people that get it hardly has issues.

Should have made this a pole. Did you read the other threads on the same topic?

Had the gorilla glass on my JK, State Farm upgraded my broken windshield for no charge. My understanding of the product is it had the same “soda” coating laminated to the GG layer. When I traded it in, after 6 months, a few knicks were present in the outside of the windshield, but nothing that would fail inspection.

Yes, it's a no brainer and the option wasn't even available until like September, standard Mopar windshield is absolute utter trash, I went through 3 just driving on pavement.

I broke the oem and replaced it with a 3rd party that is holding up well but when it breaks and it will I will do gorilla glass

Is there a backorder on Gorilla Glass? It wasn't readily available last time I needed it. Had the idea of just throwing it into the garage and waiting for the inevitable.

it is if you order from factory, (new jeep build order) don't think it's available elsewhere yet

I'm on my 2nd broken one. Gorilla for me next I guess.

I bought a glass insurance package on the Jeep from the dealer when I purchased the Gladiator (I know, I know). I've been actually hoping for some broken windshields to recoup my investment.

Has anyone tried getting a dealer to install Gorilla Glass through one of these plans? The plan gives me the option of taking OEM or 3rd party, but it has a lifetime payout cap. So if you take OEM you'll use it up on fewer windshields. I wonder if they would see the GG as a win for them since they are less likely to replace it again after putting one on.

I called my local glass shop last week. He had the Jeep Gorilla glass with no sensors there the next day. No problem. It was painless. Price was $930 out the door cash including tax. If you have sensors, it will be more...
