None available/in-stock. Shipping for new OEM
update is TBD. Strangest era of car ownership I’ve been in. Can buy a new car but parts are on the back of a milk carton. LOST!

1 fob
no spare
no windshields.

So were you still able to drive the car with the cracked windshield during this time?

Depends on what insurance company you have. Doesn't hurt to call in and ask. I had several BMW windshields replaced, many were done by the dealer and insurance paid for it minus glass deductible.

It needs the OEM. I got a check from the insurance company. The price will most likely go up by June

Update... I did post this on a different thread.... Reordered the glass May 1. Backordered with no ETA. I'm looking to trade for a 2025 350..maybe a 350h... or a Macan.
The fob bit and no front glass is Bunk. Nice huh?

You know you need serious help when you did so. Trading for a 2025 350h. Have no choice but to move forward. Fortunately it does not break the bank.
White w/ Palo.... replacing White w/Rioja...and I will miss that interior. Hopefully the power is good..350 Vs 350h
