They didn't put meaningful #s on the invoices but I paid CAD100 out-of-pocket for the lousy FYG and got a sweetheart deal on the CARLEX and only paid an extra CAD115.

If you only have a very small chip and it's not bothering your sightlines, I would leave it to save the hassle.

For sure, they initially kinda insisted upon going w FYG for all replacements, but it really sucked - I tried and it cracked all by itself and it rendered the rain sensor inoperative. Turned out to be a blessing in disguise since if I went for the good glass right away I would've had to pay $500 extra.
