Default Windshield Replacement

I've got a crack running across my 2003 Z windshield and insurance is going to replace it. Anything I should watch for during the replacement?

Thanks.

Make sure they put a Z06 windshield in not a regular vette windshield. The Z06 windshield is thinner and lighter yet stronger.

Make sure you get a HUD replacement if applicable...

Simple pop out and reglue replacement. Nothing special compared to other newer car designs.
