Windshield Replacement

2025 CX-5 Carbon, took a large rock that really did a number on the front windshield. Insurance says it needs to be replaced and I have to use Safelite. Anyone have any experience with either OEM or not for the windshield itself? And the calibration that needs to be done after the windshield is replaced? Safelite says they can do the calibration.

Thanks, Tom
 
Where do you live that an insurance company can dictate where repairs are made? I know they can't do that in Calif. I had my windshield replaced at the shop of my choice using OE glass and State Farm was glad to pay the bill.
