I put mine on a few months ago. Install wasn't too bad, but I would recommend a second pair of hands to help you.Anyone use this? Reviews?

This is the fight I fear. A broken GG windshield and the ins company only wants to replace it with a standard windshield.I am fighting with the warranty company about my first cracked GG windshield , but when it is replaced I am definitely looking into them. How hard was the install?
Install wasn't hard at all, I just took my time and followed the steps exactly. They have an Install video on their site that I used:I am fighting with the warranty company about my first cracked GG windshield , but when it is replaced I am definitely looking into them. How hard was the install?
It came on my High Tide, did want it. But if the say it has a 2 year warranty I am gunna try. If not safelite and an oem regular replacement, will not put GG back in if I have to pay for it. Never had a break like this in any car not even my YJ with 200k on it. And the original windshield. If 1 tiny sand grain spec caused it then that stuff is junk. I will be installing peal offs.
I've got the R/O tear-off as well: due for another one this spring, but I guarantee you that if I didn't have it, I'd have gone through several windshields by now: there are several "dings" where I've taken severe rock impacts, yet the windshield itself is unmarredI have the Tear away RacingOptics on mine. Love it! My biggest concern when I first purchased was whether or not the wipers would affect the laminate...they do not! I'm on my second year of use and still have two tear offs to go...still clear. My commute is 57 miles a day in the early am (usually More trucks than cars)all highway which is the reason for the purchase. Cracked 2 windshields and the third replacement was when I applied it, there is really no other way to guarantee against getting an errant rock smack from nowhere, but at least you can can now protect against it. I swear by RacingOptics product and customer service.
2 years is pretty great, thats my goal. I've had mine on for the better half of a year now and it still look great, so I'm hoping it makes it as long as you've had. I figured my ROI was right around 6 months based on how often windshields break in my area, so its paying off at this point.I've had this film installed for about 2 years. The install isn't bad. A 2nd pair of hands would help a lot though. The sheet of film is large and unwieldy. You just apply it with a spray bottle filled with water and a few drops of baby shampoo. I installed it myself and got some specs of dirt and hair underneath. That doesn't bother me though, they are nearly invisible. The film definitely helps with rock chips. I went through 3 windshields in the first couple years of owning my JL. With this film installed I haven't had to replace my windshield in 2 years. I've heard rocks hit the windshield that would have broken it. The film only last about 2 years. It's starting to dry out and get pitted. I'll be pealing it off soon. Still saved me some money and time not having to replace windshields as often. I'd buy it again.
