Is there a difference in quality and fit with tinted LOF date coded glass vs. the no logo replacement type of glass? My original is pretty scratched and needs replaced. I tried the polishing kits but its beyond that. Any suggestions on where to buy? I tried a local glass guy but he is having trouble finding the quarter glass. Thanks for any help.

go with the originals if at all possible....the replacements are not quite the same and are difficult to get adjusted properly.

Clint;

I had purchased (supposedly) original dated glass from Rick's about 4 years ago - finally got around to having it installed last year and I had big problems. The glass didn't have the correct concave shape and didn't seal at all against the window fuzzies. I contacted Rick's and they had the glass company send me replacements but the new glass had the same problem. I finally bought a set of OER tinted glass from Classic Industries; couldn't get dated glass, but at least it finally fit in my '69 Z.
