Windshield question

[ToyotaTrk]

So, 1st of all, sorry for the bad picture.... Also, this may qualify for the Stupid Question of the Day - but, im getting a little old and forgetful.... Recently had the windshield replaced - another LONG thread and have this question: In the picture, the horizontal lines running along the bottom of the windshield - is this standard? Part of the defrost heat system? I just don't remember seeing these on the original glass that was replaced. Standard equipment?
Tks

Yes that is standard and I believe that is the heated windshield and serves to defrost your frozen wipers.
