[Shotimes] SHO cracked windshield--recommended vendors?

[Donald Mallinson]

Dave,

I understood that.  The heated windshield is slightly tinted everywhere 
in addition to the regular tint, as I mentioned.

IF there is a difference in tint for '95, chances are it is only in the 
upper area across the top, but a glass shop should be able to answer the 
question.
