This is the original
It started a month after the purchase and is increasing (today the car is 2 years old)
Can you tell me the brand of the original glass (with air bubbles)?

Another one from germany ;).

We got our first windshield replaced in october 2019.....

A very small stone hits our windshield right in the centre and instantly a 10" crack appeared....

This glass is so fragile.
Did your honda dealer replace the glass in your case or Carglass?

What? In the US? I think multiple people got it replaced for around $300 or so (when no HSensing).
Non-fancy Type R windshield replacement was over $1,200 with tax by an independent glass shop. But premium fuel is ~$2.50/gallon (but not as high octane as you get).

It wasnā€™t me who paid around 300, but someone here on civicx from the US and was done it by safelite. Thatā€˜s why I found it expensive. I paid 300ā‚¬ (not USD!) deductible but the total cost was 914ā‚¬ with camera calibration. And that was also by the EU Safelite aka Carglass. And I wasnā€˜t satisfied with their work.

Good that you get an original. (Warranty of course so no other option). The Non-oems (at least mine) do not haven anti reflective coating on the inside an the top of the dashboard is always visible in the glass. Glasses with polar filter can help.
However I have to say that the lining at the edges looked much better on mine. Now itā€˜s ugly becuse of Carglass.
Hopefully this new glass will last longer in your car too.

Sorry for my late response, my Honda dealer replaced the windshield.

Costs 1300 Euros for my insurance.
