    Has anyone had their windshield replaced yet on the 16's?

    There is a slight difference in size from the 15 windshield unfortunately.

    Mine has been cracked since the day I bought it (shitty luck on the drive home).

    I've been waiting for the aftermarket version to come out without the useless GoPro mount, I've gotten quotes from all the glass places around and they all seem to be in the $700-800 Canadian range. They all claim it's so expensive due to the "camera mount".

    Has anyone found the cheaper aftermarket version?

    I live in an area where you pretty much need a new windshield every year.

    The roads are bad, lots of heavy truck traffic, the traction sand they use in the winter is practically gravel.

    that's pretty much how much mines cost. luckily i didn't have to pay a deductible. the replacement windshield is from the same manufacturer as the original windshield and also has a gopro mount but it doesn't say 'gopro', doesn't have any branding.
