We are live with the windshield replacement! I read in other threads that it’s a good idea to purchase the larger Toyota rivets in case screws have been used. That’s exactly the case on my passenger side, so very glad to have purchased those. More photos to come.

Window is installed. I only ordered one of the gaskets that goes over the rivets (part 75543-60020) make sure you order two! As stated in my last response, two of the larger rivets were used on the passenger side near the bottom (dash). Since they’re the larger rivets, there is a bump visible on the gasket you install over it.

I also noticed a couple of other things:

- There’s a little gap between the upper gasket (part 75531-60030) and the roof. Will the channels allow that to drain properly, or is that a concern?

- I’ve got some play in the cowl pressing against the windshield. I did replace the hood cowl seal (part 53383-60031). Does that need to break in or do I need to make an adjustment?

- The small flap gaskets (?) on the top of the cowl are pretty worn. Does anyone know if those can be replaced or are they are part of the cowl itself?

Not sure on the top window gap but since you purchased new molding, I would think it would be a better fit than that, but I have not gone through the process yet. Maybe you just need to make an adjustment. Same thing with the cowl molding on the bottom but it looks like you didn’t replace that piece so maybe that’s the issue. I think I bought all the parts necessary, but I’m not sure if that piece was included. I followed your list as well. My concern is finding a good installer. I plan to remove the old windshield myself and just have them install the new one and I will then install the remaining trim pieces myself.

Are you replacing that cowl molding? I didn’t think about that but now I’ve got that little gap between it and the windshield

Having the additional larger rivet proved useful as some of the holes for the molding were in rough shape. The windshield "gaskets" (parts 56117-50140 & 56117-60050) were not installed, although it couldn't really hurt.

I have a couple questions that I'll add along with photos of the end result.
 
Close-up of larger rivets on passenger side. While it keeps the molding & windshield in place properly, it makes it difficult to install the cover gasket (part 75543-60020).

Overall pretty happy with the end result. Jamie @ Mobile Pro Auto Glass in Charlotte is knowledgeable about installing 100 series glass.

Well I got my windshield replacement scheduled. OEM covered through insurance! FWIW I have Progressive with $0 glass deductible. They partner with Safelite, but I was instructed to file the claim and when it got to Safelite, let them know I require OEM glass/specialty installation due to the difficulty of install and it would escalate the claim.

I am going through a local Lexus dealer (from a recommendation) so will need to pay out of pocket, then submit claim to insurance afterward. But seems like all will be taken care of!
