many people will tell you to get aftermarket, but will then reduce a vehicle's value if it has non-oem glass. it's one or the other. either you want it to look original or you want to save few $$. i too keep a $100 comp deduct on our LX's insurance becuase the glass is sooooo outrageous to replace. it was $8XX a few months ago at the lexy dealer. it looks like original and they used a real toyota trim kit.

my $0.02
