i think he means the PPG name and DOT numbers.  Could easily sandblast that with a spot blaster if I had a stencil.

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.


What's the bug? The glass is date coded - like almost everything
... the TM info is sandblasted

Galvins.  Kennedy sells the same brand.

I think all the repop qtr glass is tinted, but best to ask.  I have no experience with the qtr glass, just the driver's door and backglass, both of which fit well.

That's great news Cam! I wonder if they have this new glass in clear?

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.

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.
