Default 2017 Hybrid LE Windshield Replacement

I'm wondering if someone can send a picture of their hybrid windshield with condensation sensor in order to compare it to mine. I just had the windshield replaced from a crack and I am concerned the windshield installed was for a vehicle without the condensation sensor. My hybrid does have the sensor, and I overheard some whispers from behind the counter while the car was getting worked on about them checking again if the vehicle had the sensor. From the explanation I received from the girl behind the desk, Toyota has two different windshields, one for the hybrids WITH the condensation sensor and one with out. I'm concerned I was taken advantage of and the cheaper windshield was installed when it should have be the alternative.

Any help or insight to put my mind at ease would be greatly appreciated.

Toyota lists the same windshield part numbers for hybrid and non-hybrid cars.

There is a different windshield for precrash and non precrash equipped cars. Precrash has to do with Toyota's radar system that supposed to detect vehicles in front of the car which might cause accidents .

That helps! Thank you. Sounds like maybe the difference is just labor then for mounting the condensation sensor.
