Answer 4

Parabrisas is specifically the windshield. Cristal means crystal or glass, and is used to refer to the car windows in general. There was an article in a Venezuelan newspaper today talking about how people are converting their cars into armored vehicles because of the high crime rate in Caracas. They armor the body and replace the windows with bullet-proof glass:

Los trabajadores desarman la carrocería y remueven los cristales en un minucioso proceso para convertir a los vehículos en fortalezas sobre ruedas.

The workers dismantle the car body and remove the windows in a meticulous process in order to convert the vehicles into fortresses on wheels.
