I need to replace the front windshield. I have a non-original windshield now that is clear.

 

NPD has this:

and this:

but they are tinted. I called them and they say that the clear has been discontinued.

 

CJPP only has tinted as well.

 

I checked my Marti report and it says nothing about tinted glass option, and all the other glass in the car is clear.

 

Does anyone have a source to the correct clear windscreen?

 

Thanks.

I got clear glass from ECS.

almost all glass manufacturers stop making clear windshields decades ago. Most customers prefer the tinted glass, much easier on the eyes.

unless you are building a concourse car the color doesn't matter . . if you are building a concourse car then you need to have the date and other info etched on it or you will loose points and this might cost $100.00 or more.

Thanks for the replies and the link. I have to decide then if I want the windshield to be tinted while the rest of the car glass is clear or give ECS a cal.

 

Thanks

well, when you show it i would think the top and windows would down so no one would see the difference anyway.

I'm sure your going to end up with a shaded windshield. Years ago you had 3 options, shaded which has a dark band at the top and the rest of the windshield is tinted. next was just strictly a tinted windshield, and last was just the clear. The majority of people always refer to a shaded windshield as " tinted "

I got mine from a local glass guy in norcal, i specifically asked for a tinted ford glass. And thats what i got. Im not sure if he would be able to get what you need tho.
