    I used this in the 80's when I purchased cars to try tell if they had been in a smash it was generally a good starting point
    I thought it only denoted the year

    Thanks for the help GTS, Jennie, Hainzy & Rodney. I'll get to the local wreckers first and then if no luck locally, I'll give Oz a ring!
    Thanks,

    Roughly 5 years ago I went to an auto glazier (autoscreen Lavington) and they said that they could get the glass brand new (doors) as for the rear windows the bloke said "we just cut em up in lam"

    if your looking for scratch free do your best down there as i dont freight glass..if your looking for date coded scratch free you will have as much luck as me looking for a neat and tidy 40 year old single woman with no kids or emotional baggage who owns a pub and a fleet of collectible cars and is also a millionaire and has no immediate family and hates bitching at her man...

    Thanks Rico, I'll do a bit of a ring around locally and I might just get lucky
