I need to replace my windshield due to a crack in my line of sight. Is it necessary to have to recalibrate my forward facing camera for just windshield replacement?

Hi,

I didn't think it was needed, but I figured I better make sure. I found that it isn't needed for a windshield replacement unless something is being done for a repair to the camera module.

See the attached pic.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care and God Bless,

Joe
