Is there a way to determine the production date from the codes on the windscreen?
Is there a way to determine the production date from the codes on the windscreen?
did anyone here ever try to get info first hand?

I think there must be, at least approximately. They are not random numbers and letters and comparing with other parts like coils and MFI pumps, they mean something. But more pics of original screens would be most useful.
Please volunteer Franz! My experiences are not very good trying to contact companies in Germany only speaking English.
And btw, would you go to Porsche first if you needed first hand info on these cars???? Nope, this is the best place to start, nobody beats the ESR.

Here is a shot of the original (still in place) windshield from my 69S (#618 with 1/14/69 build) that I bought in 3/22/69. There is no reference to "made in Western Germany" on any of the glass on the car.

Radmund, I think you are right about the distinction between tinted and clear glass. My car had tinted windows on the accessories list. All tinted windows had a total option price of $59.35 in 1969 when purchased. The windshield was $36.25 while the rear window was $9.90 with the side windows being 13.20. All windows other that the windshield say SEKURIT-F with D51 underneath.

All great stuff....So when was Sekurit tinted windshields used. I got a note responding to my need for a tinted Sigla for my 71, for a tinted Sekurit that's been in storage that came from a SWB car?
What the thought in this?
Thanks
