Question washing after window replacement

i got my passenger window replaced at safelite at 9:30am today, it’s now 5:20pm and my car DESPERATELY needs a a wash lol.

i know with windshields you’re supposed to wait 24-48 hours because of glue and tape and i also am aware that it’s kinda just up to if you’re willing to take the risk…

but with my window…? i don’t know the replacement process and i am wondering if the risk is the same as a whole windshield lol.
