Windscreen looks fuzzy in rain, I want to replace it

Hi everyone,

I am a 2012 pip owner (bought used 6 years ago), currently at about 120k miles.

The car itself drives very well, but I am noticing that the visibility from the front windscreen gets very poor (and fuzzy) when it is night and it rains (even with wipers at full speed + defoggers ON).

Any shining light in front of me (either tail lights of cars ahead of me, or traffic lights) show up as vertical shimmers across the windscreen.

Today evening, I was in a very similar situation - I was taking my son to his art class during night time with heavy rains and I had a very strong heightened awareness of risk due to poor visibility.

I am thinking if I replace the windscreen, it could perhaps fix the problem?

If I am on the right track
- Would this actually fix the problem which I describe?
- What type of cost can I expect with OEM parts + labor?
- Should I get it done from any place which offers cheapest labor cost?

If I am not on the right track to fix this problem - what other ideas can I try?

What is your collective guidance on this topic?
Anyone else faced same issues with their old PiP's?

Thank you!
