Plexiglass is brittle and cracks easily. Polycarbonate (Lexan) is durable and resists cracking and impacts.

Hey Guys,
When the windshield on my JL cracked, I had one of those mobile window replacement services, where they come to your home, or workplace, and replace the windshield there. I paid $275 CDN.
Now what they don't tell you, is that is you do NOT pick the OEM, but choose the aftermarket option, it is STILL an "Acoustic" glass windshield. It just doesn't have the easter egg of the 1941 Jeep at the bottom passenger corner. I could do without that for the convenience of it being done in my driveway, and for such a low cost. It's holding up just fine (fingers crossed)

Optic armor can cut a windshield if you provide the specs. They won’t cut a windshield for a “Jeep” branded vehicle if ya get my meaning. They are still committed to FCA for mopar branded products.

Id expect it to be flat with no curvature like the OEM product.
That's very interesting Ill look them up. Thanx

Nope. Best you can do is the bog-standard OEM windshield that came with it. You can apply a protective windshield film like ExoShield on it though after you replace it.

Thanks for the film info. My new Jeep has 1,250 miles and is 3 weeks old. Stone hit it this afternoon. BAM Sucks!!
