Understand what you are asking - "can my windshield washing system be changed after delivery from "spray hood nozzles" to "windshield wash thru wipers - no spray"

Is this what you are asking ?

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone has this and if it’s a noticeable advantage? And does it make replacing the wipers more expensive?

The answer to your second question is yes. Replacement blades are over $100.

Magic Vision might be worth it if it eliminates the huge amount of overspray that ends up on my panorama roof.

One of the best and cheapest options on the GLS. It saves water use 50% or more. It completely eliminates "washout blindness". IMO they should be standard.

one of the big bonus is that Magic Vision system is heated.

to get the part number you need a vin of a GLS with the option then give that to the parts department. From there they can order the parts.
