Since the crack is in your line of sight your insurance company shouldn't even be offering to have it repaired. Your windshield should be replaced. The cost to replace your windshield and the amount of your comprehensive deductible will dictate who pays for the replacement.

I don't buy the oem vs. aftermarket glass argument. The link the information came from was from a glass company. Of course they are going to tell you OEM is better, they're in business to make money. I have no problem putting aftermarket glass in my 4Runner or my Vette as long as the fit and finish are good.
