Lexus Windshield Replacement

Lexus is a luxury vehicle with the slogan “The Pursuit of Perfection.”  Perfection usually comes at a price.  Lexus windshield and auto glass replacement is no different.  Although, earlier model vehicles don’t have the current technology build into the glass making those more affordable. A Lexus windshield replacement requires a highly skilled technician. The vehicles are equipped with many features only found in Lexus cars. Current models have quite the list of options.  You need a company like Abbey Rowe Auto Glass to ensure your Lexus glass replacement is done properly.

Some Lexus models are very difficult to replace the glass. The SC400 is one of the most difficult vehicle out there. It takes time and a highly skilled technician. This is not a vehicle for any auto glass installer.

The windshield side moldings on a LX570 are held in place by six clips that are difficult to remove and easily damaged. Replacement clips are recommended and always included with our replacements.

Given that Lexus makes such good vehicles, many older models are still on the road today. If you own or are looking to purchase an older model vehicle. Make sure that all the glass is in good condition. A back glass on a mid 90’s Lexus can run over $1000 dollars.

Lexus Windshield Replacement Options:

Automatic rain-sensing wipers– A optical sensor attached to the windshield.  It uses infrared light beamed at a 45-degree angle into the windshield which reflects back — if the glass is wet, less light returns to the sensor, and the windshield wipers wipers turn on.

Hydrophobic Windshield & Door Glass- A special coating applied to the glass that sheets the water off allowing easier viewing when it’s raining.

Windshield Wiper De-icer or heated wiper park area – An electric heating element throughout the bottom of the glass allowing to melt snow and ice without having to wait for the engine to warm up.

Lane Keep Assist- Using a camera mounted on the windshield, If the system judges that the vehicle may deviate from its lane, it alerts the driver using beeping, screen displays and a sensory warning  given via the steering wheel.  A slight steering torque is applied for a short period of time in the direction of the center of the lane.

Lane Departure Warning Function- While driving on a freeway or motor highway that has lane markers and no sharp curves, the system recognizes the lanes using a camera located on the windshield above the inside rear view mirror as a sensor to assist the driver with staying in the lane.

Heads up display- The vehicle’s most crucial information is conveniently projected directly onto the surface of the windshield. Information can be turned on or off at the driver’s discretion.

Lexus Night View (Night Vision)-  Using a near-infrared camera mounted to the windshield.  Near-infrared rays are irradiated forward and an image converted from the irradiated light is shown on the Remote Touch screen. The image shows pedestrians, obstacles, and road conditions ahead of the vehicle, which are difficult to see at nighttime with the naked eye.

Acoustic Interlayer- Acoustic lamination applied to the windshield and all side door glass helps reduce powertrain and wind noise.
