Here’s one for the doubters. Demonstration of the Gorilla Glass durability vs regular windshield glass.

Guessing adaptive cruise control people.

Can somebody post the time stamp for when the substantive material about the glass is presented in the Lite Brite video?

This model is only for those with adaptive cruise control AND an antenna built into your windshield....

may god help you my son

Also just FYI the one for adaptive cruise and no antenna is not out yet either.

Luckily I didn’t order any of these options on mine. So if you don’t have adaptive cruise or an antenna imbedded in your windshield they are available now LOL

Would love an update once someone gets one of these installed. It is hard to believe what Lite Brite states in their videos as they love anything that is providing them sponsorship. The factory windshield is supposed to somehow help with acoustics. Not sure if the Gorilla glass one will be noticeably different or not.

I have had my Jeep for 2 months and have several large cracks and chips already. I drive the same road as I did with my TJ and my SRT and get many of the same type off rocks thrown up at the windshield with far less damage. These OEM windshields SUCK!

Yeah. That's me.

 

[40”JLURD]

Yeah. That's me.

Since your Jeep has the antenna built into the windshield does it still have an AM/FM antenna on the passenger side front?

Or is that antenna in the windshield for something else?

What equipment puts an antenna in the windshield?

Funny, I would assume it uses that super fancy radio antenna thats aways smacking into the A pillar.
J/K.
For AM/FM it uses the regular antenna, but if you have DAB, that antenna is indeed mounted in the windscreen. I think it is also used as a diversity antenna.

Since you’re in the USA (where DAB radio does not exist) I would say fuck that antenna in the windshield - unless you plan on shipping your Jeep to Europe, Africa or Asia where they actually use DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast Radio).

The only thing that antenna in the windshield is doing for you in the USA is making your windshield cost more and be harder to get.

Still doesn’t really help you though because the one with just adaptive cruise isn’t available yet either

I've broke at least 3 "gorilla" glass phones, not sure what the hype is. Last one fell off a bar type table and shattered, I'll pass.
