Rear Back Glass and Front Windshield Question
« on: July 13, 2005 - 08:03:37 AM »

This may sound stupid, but I just recieved a big crate box today from Muscle City glass.........
And I have left it in the crate until it goes around but I ordered front and rear screens and they are an exact match!!!  :eeksmall: :gripe:

Now, I'm no glass expert but there MUST be a difference right? This is for a 70 Challenger for any newbies.  :)
If so how, lenght or width? The out lines of the glass are exact....theres no way front will swap with the back, right?  :???:
@#$%&! Muscle City Glass!!!! I made sure I told them EXACTLY what I wanted several times and I have all the invoices etc..
The sad thing is if it is incorrect, I may have to ship the bloody thing back and at $500 US to get it here that is just arse.  >:(


Any help thanks lads..... :-\

Sounds like their screwup. If they're a good company, they will send you the correct part and let you keep the wrong part. Obviously, it would cost a lot more to ship it back than the glass would be worth.

They are definitly different sizes.Are you sure it`s not the packaging making it look the same?

If it is their mistake , then make them eat the shipping fees. We do it all the time at the company I work for. And vias versa, when we screw up , we end up eating the shipping fees. And we ship some big s_ it ! ! !

Thanks lads I have since sent an email to Muscle City Glass. He read it 2 days ago, no reply.  :(

Torred: 100%  ;) It looks like one piece and acutally got cleard in one city as i piece lol.


I'll wait for their reply and go from there but I have decided to keep it as it is always a good idea to keep a second backup windshield with all the stones & crap on the roads these days. I will just ask for the backglass to be sent with a discount or.....not sure yet.


Cheers  :(
