Lexus's manufacturer documentation requires calibration any time the windshield is removed on an LSS+-equipped RX. That's the official position — and we always make customers aware of it.
In practice, we do perform non-calibrated replacements when customers specifically request it. In the vast majority of cases the system continues to function normally — the camera re-mounts to the same bracket in the same position.
Our recommendation: If you're using insurance, calibrate — the cost is covered and there's no reason not to. If you're paying out of pocket and your LSS+ was working perfectly before, a non-calibrated replacement is a reasonable choice. If warning lights appear after the job, bring it back and we'll calibrate at cost.

On a 2016+ RX with Lexus Safety System+, the forward camera reads through the windshield glass. Even a chip that appears far from the camera field of view can cause calibration issues after resin injection — resin changes the optical properties of the glass in that zone, and LSS+ can fail calibration or generate intermittent warnings.
If the chip is within 8 inches of the camera mount area (top center of the glass), we will almost always recommend replacement over repair on an LSS+ RX. A full replacement with calibration through insurance typically costs nothing out of pocket.
