Windshield Replacement for Your 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander
The 2008 to 2013 Toyota Highlander is an absolute workhorse, but its large, sweeping windshield takes a heavy beating from highway debris. If you have a crack spreading across your line of sight, you need it fixed right the first time. I have worked on hundreds of these second-generation Highlanders, and they have specific quirks when it comes to the cowl and molding that require an experienced hand.

How We Replace Your Highlander's Windshield
I never cut corners. Auto glass is a structural part of your Highlander, keeping the roof from crushing in a rollover. Here is exactly how we handle the job:
- Interior Protection: First, we drop protective covers over your dash and front seats. We also carefully remove your wipers and that tricky plastic cowl at the base of the glass.
- Glass Removal: We use specialized cold-knife tools to cut through the old factory seal without scratching the pinch weld. Scratching the paint here means rust later, so we take our time and do it right.
- Surface Cleaning: Once the old glass is out, we trim down the old urethane bead to a flat base and clean the metal frame thoroughly. Dust and dirt will ruin a good seal, so we make sure the channel is spotless.
- Primer Application: We apply a high-grade glass primer to any bare metal and the edges of the new windshield. This step guarantees the glue bites down hard and holds fast.
- Adhesive and Installation: Finally, we lay down a thick, even bead of premium, fast-curing urethane adhesive. We set the new glass perfectly in place, reattach your wipers, and make sure everything lines up flush.
