Model Y Dual Pane Glass Retrofit

[glide]

For those who are wondering, Service will not install but you can buy the parts directly.

Cost for 2 front windows was quoted around $600.

I would be interested to know if anyone has made any sound measurements or at least subjection comparison to non dual pane.

Given the 9 panes of glass the Model Y has, I'm not surprised that simply replacing the two side panes makes no difference to sound levels. Looks like the lamination is primarily for shattering safety (unless you drive into a lake and need to break free).

I would check with a different SC. Earlier there was a post (on Reddit) that the front seat tempered glass windows could be replaced with the newer laminated glass windows by Tesla for ~$1300 US.

It looks like there is more to it than just swapping the glass. Take a look at this video and pause at the 1:17 mark. Notice how different the attachment area is.

Bjorn did some noise testing on a new 2021 Model 3 with the laminated glass. spoiler: it isn't any quieter

So if it isn't for quieter in cabin noise...is the laminated glass for the Model Y just a real world test in preparation for the Cybertruck?
