How Do I know I have a "Solar Coated" windshield
I am getting two quotes, one with a "solar coated" and one without it, at half the price. Thing is, if I don't have it, I won't miss it right? so, How Do I know I have a "Solar Coated" windshield?

BMW call this "Climate Comfort WindScreen". The whole screen has a UV filter coating that gives it a colour tint and reduces solar gain inside the car.
Get the part number on the lower right corner and check it at RealOEM.com

so the stealership is quoting me with $440 glass $26 rubbers and $165 labor... I guess that's not too bad is it? the "mobil-glass" guys quoted me with $575 with the solar coated and about 350 with the cheap stuff...

oh I did find that... the question is, how do I know I have that... either way, all of them ar at around 400 bucks plus install, the dealer quote is not bad... I would save 200 bucks with a third party...but then the peace of mind... oh well.
