Replacement Glass Arrival Inspection: What to Check Before Installation Starts
Confirm the Glass Matches Your Options (ADAS, HUD, Heated, Tint)
Before installation starts, confirm the replacement glass matches your vehicle's exact options. Two windshields can look identical on the cart and still be wrong for your car once sensors and trim are involved. Check the label or part number against the work order and verify the features you rely on: a forward-facing camera bracket for ADAS, a rain/light sensor window, a heated wiper park area, embedded antennas, acoustic (sound-reducing) laminate, or a HUD-compatible "wedge" that prevents double images in the projected display. Tint and shade bands matter too. Some vehicles use a full tint, others have a top shade band, and the wrong configuration can change glare, night visibility, or inspection compliance. If your windshield has special coatings or a specific mirror/camera mounting button, verify that hardware is present and located correctly. When possible, confirm by VIN-based lookup rather than guessing by year and model, since mid-year option changes are common. A reputable shop will welcome this verification because it prevents delays and rework later. At Bang AutoGlass, we treat arrival inspection as part of the service: we match the glass to your options first, so the technician is not discovering a missing bracket or incorrect tint when the old windshield is already out of the vehicle.
Inspect for Visible Defects: Scratches, Chips, Edge Damage, and Distortion
Once you know the part is the right one, inspect the glass itself under good lighting before it ever touches your vehicle. Start with the obvious: look for scratches, scuffs, or rub marks on both sides, especially near the center of the driver's view where even a faint line can catch headlights at night. Then inspect the edges carefully. Small chips, crushed corners, or edge "flake" damage can turn into cracks during installation or shortly after, because the edge is where stress concentrates when the windshield is set into urethane. Run a gloved hand lightly along the perimeter to feel for roughness, and look for any star-like marks or tiny cracks near corners. Next, check for optical distortion. Hold the windshield upright and look through it at straight lines like a door frame or parking lot stripe; wavy or rippled lines can indicate a manufacturing defect that will be distracting once installed. Also confirm the glass is cleanly laminated with no trapped debris, haze, or delamination "bubbles" between layers. A good shop will not try to "make it work" with a questionable part, because the cost of a redo is far higher than rejecting a flawed windshield at the start. This early inspection is one of the simplest ways to avoid leaks, wind noise, and frustration after replacement.
Verify Frit, Shade Band, and Bracket Locations Before the Tech Starts
Before the technician preps the pinchweld and sets urethane, verify that the windshield's functional features line up with your vehicle. The black ceramic frit band and dotted transition at the perimeter are not just cosmetic; they help protect the urethane bond from UV exposure and provide a consistent bonding surface. Make sure the frit pattern matches the original so trim and moldings will seat correctly and the bonded area will be covered as intended. Next, confirm the shade band location and height if your vehicle has one. A band that is too low can interfere with your view, while a missing band can increase glare. Now focus on brackets and buttons: the rearview mirror mount, rain sensor pad location, and any ADAS camera bracket should be present, correctly oriented, and positioned exactly where the original was. Misplaced brackets can force the camera housing to sit under tension or leave gaps that create rattles and calibration errors. Also check that any clear "sensor window" area is truly clear and not printed over, and that heated elements or antenna connectors (if applicable) match the car's harness points. Catching a mislocated bracket or incorrect frit layout at this stage prevents a painful scenario where the windshield is installed but the electronics cannot be mounted correctly. Bang AutoGlass performs these checks before installation so your replacement looks factory-correct and supports the vehicle's safety systems from day one.
Signs of Shipping or Storage Damage (Warping, Pressure Marks, Hidden Flaws)
Not all problems are visible at first glance, so it helps to know what shipping and storage damage can look like on automotive glass. Windshields should be transported and stored upright on an A-frame with proper padding. If a windshield is laid flat, stacked, or cinched down unevenly, it can develop subtle warping that only becomes apparent once it is fitted to the vehicle. Check for pressure marks where straps or packaging contacted the glass; these can show as faint dull spots, scuffs, or localized distortion when you view the glass at an angle. Inspect the packaging itself for corner crush, punctures, or moisture intrusion, because those conditions often correlate with edge damage or lamination issues. Look closely at corners and along the bottom edge for hairline "starter" cracks that may be hidden under protective film. Temperature extremes can also stress laminated glass; rapid heating or cooling during transit may not crack the windshield immediately, but it can weaken the edge so it fails during installation. If the windshield includes a HUD wedge or acoustic layer, check for any haze, rippling, or separation between layers near the perimeter. Any uncertainty is a reason to pause and verify, because installing a marginal part invites leaks, wind noise, and an avoidable comeback. A careful arrival inspection protects both the vehicle and the schedule.
Make Sure Required Parts Are Present: Moldings, Clips, Sensor Pads, Hardware
A correct windshield is only part of a correct installation. Before the job begins, confirm that all required ancillary parts are present, because many of them are designed to be replaced rather than reused. Common examples include upper moldings, side moldings, cowl retainers, clips, setting blocks, and dam or foam pieces that control water flow and wind noise. If your vehicle has a rain sensor, you will typically need a fresh gel pad or refill gel, not a reused pad pulled off the old glass. For ADAS-equipped vehicles, verify the camera bracket or mounting hardware is included and that any covers or spacers are not cracked. Some vehicles also require new rivets or one-time-use fasteners for garnish moldings, and missing hardware often leads to rushed reassembly, rattles, or trim that does not sit flush. Ask the shop what they plan to replace and what they plan to reuse, and whether they have the correct primer and urethane system for your vehicle. These materials are not interchangeable "glues"; they are part of the safety structure that supports airbags and roof strength. When Bang AutoGlass stages a job, we verify the glass and the supporting parts together so the installation can be completed in one visit, with proper sealing, correct trim fit, and fewer post-install surprises.
If Something Looks Off: Document, Reject the Part, and Prevent Rework
If anything looks off during arrival inspection, the best time to act is before the old windshield is removed. Take clear photos of the label, part number, and the area of concern (scratch, chip, bracket position, distortion), and point it out to the technician or service advisor immediately. A quality shop will stop the process, verify the part against the VIN and options, and, if needed, reject the glass and reorder rather than trying to "massage" the fit. That is not being difficult; it is preventing rework. Once a windshield is installed, discovering the wrong bracket location or a distortion problem can mean a second removal, additional trim risk, and more downtime for you. It can also create safety issues: misbonded trim can cause wind noise and water leaks, and a mispositioned camera bracket can trigger ADAS faults or require repeated calibration attempts. If you must proceed due to timing, get the concern documented on the invoice and agree on the remedy plan in writing, including how calibration will be handled. At Bang AutoGlass, we prefer to solve these issues at the door by inspecting the part with you, because the fastest, cleanest installation is the one done once. Being proactive protects your vehicle, your schedule, and your peace of mind.
