doors are the same, if you look at the javelin door glass where it meets the quarter window it goes straight up, the AMX glass angles slightly forward.

Smile Now for originality, and to not lose points in a close stock Concours judged class, someone needs to reproduce the stencil for etching the "bug" on the glass with the original text that was on the original glass...

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. On the new glass the brand name and DOT label are in the shoe and covered with glue, so that would make it easy.

It should be stated that Javelin side glass cannot be cut, ground or sanded to fit an AMX once the glass has been tempered. It will shatter with any attempt to re-cut.

Yes, as Lee mentioned.  Clear is a few $ less.

It should be noted that I have only installed the LH side glass and have no experience with RH.

Cam, do they make the smoke tinted rear back-light  for the 71-74 javelin? I would like to put that in my car.
Thanks, Tom
