Ram 1500 Windshield Replacement

Matching the Right Glass by VIN

Not every Ram 1500 uses the same windshield. The glass for your specific vehicle depends on its year and trim and can include a forward-facing camera, a rain sensor, a heated wiper area, acoustic glass, or a heads-up display. We match the replacement to your Ram 1500 by VIN so the new glass has the same features as the one it replaces. Entering your VIN when you book helps us source and bring the exact part for your vehicle.

RAM 1500 Windshield, and the Head-Up Display Split

The RAM 1500 is a textbook case of one model year needing two different windshields. Here is what the catalog returns across recent years.

2019. Windshield DW02458GTYN. Solar glass, a mounting button for an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and a Ram’s head logo printed into the glass. No camera, so no calibration. Interchangeable: DW02459GTYN.

2023. Windshield DW02438GTYN. Acoustic glass, rain-sensing wipers and the Ram’s head logo, still no camera. The rain sensor needs a pad or optical gel fitted with it. Interchangeables: DW02453GTYN and DW02720GTYN.

2025, and this is the one to read twice. A 2025 RAM 1500 takes either DW02990GTYN or DW02991GTYN. Both have a forward camera requiring a dynamic calibration, acoustic glass and the Ram’s head logo. The difference is that DW02990GTYN has rain-sensing wipers, while DW02991GTYN has a head-up display. Head-up display glass uses a wedge-shaped interlayer so the projected image does not appear doubled, and it cannot be substituted with glass that is not built for it. Their interchangeables differ too: DW03009GTYN for the first, DW03010GTYN for the second.

2026. Windshield DW02990GTYN, the camera and rain-sensing version.

Heavy duty is a different truck. A 2020 RAM 3500 windshield is DW02591GTNN with the Ram’s head logo and no camera, and a 2026 RAM 3500 back glass is DB13371YPNN, privacy gray, heated and fixed. None of those substitute for a 1500 part.

Why the head-up display split matters so much. If a shop quotes a 2025 RAM 1500 windshield without establishing whether the truck has a head-up display, there is a real chance of fitting the wrong glass. The truck will look finished. The driver will then have two overlapping projected images in front of them, permanently, until the glass is replaced again. A VIN check takes seconds and removes the possibility.

Every one of those distinctions comes off the VIN in seconds. None of them can be read off the outside of the vehicle. If you want the full explanation of how these part numbers work, see our guide to auto glass part numbers, and for what each feature does, see our windshield features guide.

ADAS Camera Calibration After Replacement

Many Ram 1500 models use a forward-facing camera mounted to the windshield for driver-assist systems. After a windshield replacement, that camera must be recalibrated. Skyview carries out ADAS calibration following the manufacturer's procedure, so your driver-assist features keep working as intended. See our ADAS calibration service for more.

Chip Repair, Side & Back Glass

A small chip in your Ram 1500 windshield can frequently be repaired rather than fully replaced, keeping the original factory glass in place. Skyview also handles side and back glass on the Ram 1500, including door, vent, and quarter glass and the rear windshield, all backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty. See chip repair, side window replacement, and back glass replacement.

Insurance & Filing Your Claim

All insurance is accepted, and we file your Ram 1500 glass claim for free. From a chip repair to a full windshield replacement, we deal with your insurer directly on the paperwork. Many comprehensive (glass) customers owe only their deductible (many insurers waive it for a chip repair); your cost depends on your policy and deductible, which we verify with you first.
