Call your insurance FIRST. Likely they cover the windshield since you have
full coverage. Many insurance carriers will replace the windshield for free
if you have the coverage. Basically, they waive the deductable if you have
the policy that covers the loss.

The insurance company will put in the rain-sensing windshield.
