The first question is not a question.

No, on the 2nd one.

Car glasses are made by different manufacturers. For example, Asahi Glass (Temperlite), United Glass (LN) and PPG are common on Toyotas. But your windshield should be laminated AS-1 glass and side windows and rear non-laminated AS-2 glass.

All are decent mass-market brands. But if you need to replace I personally would prefer PPG. It's a high tech company that makes a wide range of products, including windshields for Boeing:

Check out these cool PPG nanocomposite coated windshields:
