Also, with NW - you can choose an entirely different deductible for glass breakage than any of your other deductibles. Choices are $0/$25/$50/$100, etc.
I chose the $25 ded option for my glass (have $250 ded on all others).
I had my ws replaced under insurance (vandalism) - NW rep looked at the car & the estimate I had from local dealer - covered entire claim with no questions asked (minus the $25 of course).
I don't recall the exact cost, but I can tell you it wasn't any $1250 
Windshield - $383.13
Reveal Mldg - $33.72
Rain Sensor - $189.60
Install Kit - $25

Thanks for the info. I called NW this morning and the reason why I never had that OEM endorsement in the first place was because that endorsement is not allowed in Virginia.
I went ahead and will have the window replaced by Safelite tomorrow morning and pay the $500 deductible and NW will pay the rest ($256).
BTW, I already quoted how much my policy will increase by if I reduce the comprehensive deductible from $500 to $0 and it will only increase $47 for 6 months!!!! I think it's a bargain, considering any future window/body damage will cost me $0 to have it repaired.
