Most dealer service departments use an outside glass service to r&r windshield. Some dealers will do windshield replacement in house or if you take car to their body shop. Ask.

On some models, drip molding clips need to be replaced when swapping windshield. BMW also sells glass sealant and it's commonly used when glass is changed at dealer. I have heard of instances where 3rd party glass service uses their own sealant just because it's easier for them to work with what they know. Different dealers have different policies on this.

Make sure replacement glass has BMW logo in lower drivers side corner. Also make sure glass has features for your VIN, heads up, active driving assist, rain sensor, etc.
