[quote=A12]So does that mean my '69 GTX has side windshields? Now when I'm inquiring about tinted door and quarter glass do I have to state "I'm looking for tinted front door windshields and driver's and passenger's rear side windshields"? shruggy wink What kind of reaction do you think you would get at the local Autozone if you asked for a replacement rear "windshield" wiper blade for your wife's minivan.......might as well pick up some blinker fluid and some 710 while you're at it laugh2

Actually to really confuse the issue.......the SAE calls it "glazing" wink

Well, in the glass industry, someone who installs or services glass in buildings is a glazer. In the auto glass industry (I used to work in both), you have the windshield, door glass, quarter glass, & backlite. And that's just the way it is my brothers & sisters! When I worked for my first auto glass distributor in Detroit back in 1978, I was always eyeballing a clear Superbird backlite we had in inventory - it was a genuine Mopar one. One day I asked how much $$ if I bought it. As I remember, it was around $80.00. I think I was bringing home around $120.00 a week, so that was steep $$ for me! I simply could not afford it.

t's like the correct term, beltline weatherstrips, are called....

Window sweeps
Window wipes
Cat whiskers
Fuzzies
And a gal called me a few months back and called the "Dew wipes". I know what she meant smile
Another guy called me a couple days ago and called them "window anti rattle something", after much discussion he wanted beltline weatherstrips.

Yep, beltline weatherstrips are another piece most non automotive people don't know the proper term for. I do call them dew wipes sometimes just because it sounds hillbilly. laugh2

[quote=A12]So does that mean my '69 GTX has side windshields? Droplite is what there called in the Jensen service manual referring to windows that can be rolled down.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Back glass. On another note is it an engine or a motor?
