My Whitney Houston problem

[fln8tive]

With the summer teaser heat over the last couple days, a stone chip morphed into a windshield replacement yesterday. After searching "glass", "windshield", and "crack" here (had to wade through a lot of FF stuff), be assred that I will be putting my foot down as concerns OEM glass; while I know we Bikinians down here are covered with no deductable , where is my ammo as concerns OEM versus generic? Or does an '04 with rain sensor automaticaly kick the spec to OEM status?

Will my original window sticker or VIN state whether I already have comfort glass? Anybody had experience with comfort/non-comfort?

I am going to drop the X at the dealer next week for a couple of service issues (blinking LED on the light switch, door handles, maybe check for tranny and nav updates, etc) and have Safelite or Satellite do the job there.

Does the vehicle need to remain parked for 24 hours or is this urban legend?

Edit: "assred" should should actually read "assured". It still kinda works though....
