Title: Window glass tint?
Post by: Jono on March 19, 2024, 05:33:05 PM

I'm faced with replacing a damaged door window glass. Does the code tell me whether mine is tinted green or bronze? I just can't tell by eye. It definitely isn't clear. I have a 77 Coupe, Italian market car. Jono

I think it would be plain or green at that age. Bronze was only on the VX and says Bronzo on the glass, the colour difference is also quite distinctive.

If the brand is Saint-Gobain, the green tinted ones should have 'Vistaterm' on them. If the brand is Sicursiv, they should have 'Climaglass' on them.
The bronze ones, as Rossocorsa mentioned, have 'Bronzo' on them.

The clear ones just have 'Tempered' on them.

That's great information! I'm on the hunt for a left side quartlight with mirror holes in clear glass only!

I think I may have a lead on one for collection at the end of April though!
