Does anyone have an OG windshield in their oval that can show me the correct placement for the glass manufacturers logo?
I plan on doing some etching on my glass soon.
Thanks

I've seen the SEKURIT logo on both bottom corners as well as the Left-side upper corner

I have a logo'd windshield in mine, but it's a transplant so I can't tell you what year it is. I'll try to post it up later today if it'll help.
~edit~
This logo is on right side, facing the inside of the car. Windshield was installed with original side facing outward based on the observed wear pattern.

Of course, I have no way of knowing as it was pulled from a parts car about 25 years ago. For those glass detectives out there, I can tell you that it appears to be tempered rather than laminated.
