Weasel will become famous soon enough
I am the only guy at my dealer to replace windshields currently, if I wasn't there they would be subletted out. The only problem I have seen with glass company installs is that they sometimes run too fat a bead of urethane and inadvertently glue the a-pillar covers and headliner to the glass.... but any glass man who actually know what they are doing would see the narrow glue path and use a v-cut tip on the glue.

As for the windshield itself, if safelite gets it from the dealer it will have the OEM rain/light sensor and the BMW roundel on it. And it will have the OEM windshield molding gaskets, and the BMW windshield is a better quality as well. I would ask safelite to get the windshield from BMW, even if it means a few extra dollars. (which hopefully it won't)
