Any worthwhile aftermarket glass?

[SoCal80series]

I cracked my windshield in Death Valley and now in the market for aftermarket glass. Are there any aftermarket glass for the 80 that is worthwhile? I have a 1FZFE. Thanks ahead of time. BTW anyone hoarding any OEM Toyota glass in their attics are welcome to DM me!

I just had a new aftermarket windshield installed and I supplied a new OEM Gasket last week. Fits great and the clarity is on par with OEM glass. It's labeled a "FUYAO" brand.

Local windshield shop had to order it, but got it in a week or so. It was ~$300 installed, with the $65 gasket I supplied.

Used aftermarket glass from whoever bought ppg a few years back. I did as above and supplied oem gasket. I also printed the windshield install pages from the manual amd told him it needed to be done that way. Sealed in amd out and no leaks. Glass was fine.

2nd vote for FUYAO. A glass place installed a Fuyao windshield in my wife’s rogue. It’s a Chinese company but the rogue’s windshield is made in the USA. Looked excellent.

Same here.

DOT-459 is the manufacturer code for a glass plant in chy nuh. FWIW.

That's one of the most common aftermarket windscreen suppliers here in Australia too. I haven't heard of any issues with them. Pretty sure my current 80 has a windscreen from them fitted.

Well I got this project completed. Thank you to those who provided information. I put OEM weather stripping in. It is in the pic below for those who want the part number. This one also came from China, the DOT for the American plant is DOT 1038 for those interested.

I had a hawk kamikaze my windshield several years back.

Destroyed the windshield, lots-o-blood, but no penetration.

Replaced with China glass, OEM gasket, & correct sealant.

No issues years later.
