My Ride: 745i Sport package, 21" staggered chrome 128's 255 fr 295 rr, Alpine white... the only color for the e65
Default

So My pass window has a slight variation to the glass and is kind of blurry at certain angles, after a few complaints and 2 people telling me there isnt anything that they can do...................I call one day out of curiosity asking how much it is to change the window myself....650.00$$ The rep tells me to bring it by one day so he can look and tells me he def see's something, so tommorow morning Im going in for a new pass window covered under warranty....... Thank god, It bugged me every day I had to look through that window

Make sure you specify that you want original BMW glass.

Some dealers may also just out source the glass and installation to average joe glass company.

Oh, warranty work. I thought you were talking about just replacing it because of rock chips or cracks. Sorry.
