Had my windshield replaced by Safelite last Friday. Since then, we've had extended periods of rain. No signs of leakage.

The service itself was rapid, the staff courteous, and the end result was both functionally and cosmetically identical to the stock windshield. As of now, I would recommend their service to another owner.

It's entirely possible that in months, I may notice a defect. But as of now, and after a very thorough inspection, I am very pleased with the service I received.

They did leave a tiny grease/dirt smudge on the passenger side A-pillar--but it brushed off with a little effort. Considering the fact that they came to my place of business on a rainy day, and had the service completed within 45 minutes, I'm willing to accept a bit of smudge. It hardly ruined the experience.

One question I wonder about: Safelite offers sound insulated windshield and "standard" windshields. Is there a significant difference?
Id like to know about the sound proofing too, planned on getting the sound proof one when I get mine done in a couple weeks. I also planned on doing the prep work/masking off trim and paint jjst so I can avoid the bad installer experiences. I dont mind the extra work and id rather be safe than sorry.
