Genuine Glass Replacement for VAG Vehicles

I know what you've heard about aftermarket glass in Bulgaria. Almost everyone knows someone who's had their glass replaced, only to find that something wasn't quite right afterwards. If you're due for a replacement too, read on. There are a few things worth understanding before you make your choice.

What You Need to Know About Your Car's Glass:

Windscreen

The windscreen is made from laminated safety glass – two sheets of glass bonded together by a plastic interlayer (PVB).

The windscreen isn't simply a piece of glass shaped to fit the opening at the front of your car. It's designed specifically for the model, fitted precisely and must meet the required quality standards. It also plays a structural role in the car's rigidity. That's why even minor damage can compromise the safety of the driver and passengers. The glass also acts as a brace for the body and absorbs a significant amount of vibration from the road. This is exactly where I don't understand the desire to save money at any cost. The market is full of Turkish and Chinese glass, but I'd leave that compromise to lower-quality cars. For your car, genuine glass provides optimum strength and safety, as well as better visibility.

Rear, Side and Roof Glass

Rear, side and roof windows are usually made from toughened safety glass. It's more resistant to mechanical and thermal stress than ordinary glass and has one particularly important characteristic – the way it breaks. When damaged, it shatters into numerous small, rounded fragments. Due to their construction and safety requirements, rear, side and roof glass cannot be repaired.

If you have even the slightest suspicion that this type of glass is damaged, it needs replacing. There's no point taking chances.

Why Choose Genuine Glass When There Are So Many Aftermarket Alternatives?

Volkswagen Group glass does far more than simply keep out the wind and rain. It helps reduce heat build-up inside the car during summer, improving comfort and the efficiency of the air conditioning system. There's something else that's often overlooked – the glass is designed to work with the car's airbag system and support its operation if an airbag deploys.

Genuine Glass Offers:

Optimum Protection
Strong, safe glass that also supports the car's airbag system
Greater Comfort
Protects against noise and UV radiation while maintaining interior comfort during summer
Designed Specifically for Your VAG Vehicle
Optimum compatibility with advanced features (e.g. driver assistance systems such as the rain sensor or Lane Change Assist, among others).

Here we want to highlight something very important that many people overlook when buying aftermarket glass. A driver can only avoid an accident in an extreme situation if they see the road with accurate proportions and the correct perspective. You probably don't need any more reasons to choose genuine glass.

Questions and Answers

Why Choose Genuine Glass Over Aftermarket Glass?

Because genuine glass is designed specifically for your model. It fits precisely, contributes to the structural strength of the body and is engineered to work correctly with the car's airbags and sensors.

Can Side or Rear Glass Be Repaired?

No. Toughened glass cannot be repaired. If it's damaged, it must be replaced.

What Should I Do If My Windscreen Is Cracked?

Don't leave it thinking, "It'll last a little longer." The windscreen contributes to the structural strength of the body, and even minor damage can affect safety. Give us a call and we'll tell you what to do.
