Best Answer

A Windshield reflector reflects 90 percent of the dangerous UV light that comes from the sun along with the light you can see with your eye. UV light can not be seen with the naked eye. Ultra Violet light causes a reaction in the fabrics it touches which bleaches it. It dries the leather and turns the fabrics white or at least "whiter".

Is auto glass strong enough to withstand severe changes in weather (hot to cold)?

Autoglass will expand with the heat and contract with the cold, but only on a very minute scale. However the windshield has a flexible gasket which will prevent the windshield from being squeezed. The problem is only significant if you have a crack in your windshield. The crack is exacerbated by changes in the weather and grows. A well installed and undamaged glass windshield or window should have no problems.
