1. Yes
2. Depends on your insurance/deductible situation.

AFAICR, WA is not a "glass coverage" state.

You should have 2 deductibles. One for comprehensive and one for collision. It's usually a good idea to keep your comp deductible fairly low (like $100). It doesn't really raise your premiums that much at all, and will come in handy for things...like windshields.

Also, if/when having it replaced through your insurance, don't let them skimp on the quality of glass. Specify OEM only to whomever is doing the work. Probably a good idea to call the dealer and ask who they use.
