My white '97 Collectors Edition is going into the shop in about a week for a new windshield, some minor paint repair, and a polish. The existing windshield is cracked, and whoever the PO hired to install it used an aftermarket seal that caused a bit of rust to form on an upper corner. I'm confident the new body shop will do a good job repairing the corrosion and will install the new OEM windshield with an OEM seal (they said it before I had the chance to ask).
When I look up windshields I get Toyota part #5611160190 that is listed as "green." I assume this means green tint, but I don't know if it's a subtle tint over the whole windshield or just the top edge. My current aftermarket windshield appears to not have any tint except for a 4" blue band across the top.
If possible, I would really like to go with the factory correct windshield. Does anybody know if the green tint is correct or if there are/were other tints available that I'm not seeing? Obviously the rest of the windows have a fairly unique bronze tint, and that has held up really well on my cruiser. I'm just not sure about the windshield.
Thanks guys,
Caleb
