My windshield was cracked and need to have it replaced. Does bmw check if it's oem glass on lease return? I have full glass coverage but gieco will only cover the price difference between "like" oem and oem smh

I dont know.
But i think they unlikely checking the glass brand. Damages and modifies are things to focus.

If you have HUD they may have to go OEM to replace it. Don't think there is an aftermarket wind screen for HUD yet.

I have Geico as well and have just replaced my windshield after a crack as well. Full coverage, replaced at the dealer (2200 dollar). Geico didn't complain at all.
Just had to pay my deductible.

That's weird how it varies. I have full coverage with no deductible but they want me to pay the difference for OEM which is $270.

I had mine replaced with the OEM. Had to fight insurance a bit, but in the end it all worked out.
