    Hey there,

    I have a 2012 TRD Sport, and need to replace my cracked windshield. On the glass company's website, they are giving me two options for a replacement windhsield:

    1 - Green Tint/Blue Shade - Solar, W/Third Visor Band
    2 - Green Tint - Solar, W/Third Visor Band

    Does anyone know which of these is the correct choice to match the factory-installed windshield?

    Thanks!

    I would say number one but if you want to change now is the time. Say you had a Spruce Mica then the green might look good.

    I'd always go oem windshield, they always fit best and usually tend to be higher quality in my experience.
