Depending on your specific BMW X5 model year and setup, the size of the windshield may vary. If you're thinking about replacing it yourself with an OEM or aftermarket solution, I strongly advise against it. Speaking from experience of messing up a windshield job in the past, the cost of having a dealership or a reputable company like Safelite do the job is well worth it. For the X5, you will need two types of adhesive, windshield sealant, a windshield cover, a rubber buffer, and a rain and light sensor for most newer models. Each step of the replacement process presents a significant risk of making a mistake; even a small error could result in an air leak, leading to either increased cabin noise or, at worst, water damage to your interior.
In 2020, the dimensions of the windshield for the BMW X5 are 31.1 inches in length, 2.8 inches in width, and 9.1 inches in height.
Oh man, all he was asking for was the window dimensions.
