What changes the price for a Lexus IS 300
- Windshield-mounted camera. On the IS 300, Lexus Safety System+ uses a forward recognition camera mounted at the top of the windshield; Lexus requires the forward recognition camera to be calibrated whenever the windshield is removed or replaced. For context on the IS 300: Toyota said LSS+ would be standard on almost every Lexus model by the end of 2017.
- OEM vs. aftermarket glass. For the IS 300, Lexus warns that with non-genuine glass the camera bracket or ceramic border may not match, so the camera cannot be installed or see properly. See what OEM, OEE and aftermarket glass actually cost before choosing glass for your IS 300.
- Year matters. The table below averages $312 for 2001–2016 and $371 for 2018–2020.
- Calibration is its own charge. Where a IS 300 has a windshield camera it is calibrated after the glass is set; what ADAS recalibration costs explains the range.

Lexus IS 300: repair or replace?
A chip smaller than a quarter or a crack shorter than about three inches can usually be repaired — faster and far cheaper than a full replacement. Replacement is the safer choice when the damage is longer than a dollar bill, sits in the driver’s line of sight, reaches the edge of the glass (which weakens the whole windshield), or goes through both layers. A qualified shop can confirm which option your Lexus IS 300 qualifies for.
Does insurance cover a Lexus IS 300 windshield?
Whether insurance covers your Lexus IS 300 windshield depends on your comprehensive coverage and deductible. A few states require insurers to waive the glass deductible entirely, and some insurers waive it for small chip repairs. See our guides to states with zero deductible for comprehensive glass claims and states with glass endorsement coverage to check the rules in your state.
