Windshield. Coupe Fit A Vert?

I tried to get it repaired...buy a 5" crack is not repairable. Does anyone know if a coupe's windshield will fit a vert w/o ANY problems?

they are different. Not sure of all the differences, but aftermarket windows are only like 200-300 bucks installed anyway. I highly recommend having the window installed by professionals.

what year?

in 88 the glass is the same on the 'vert as the coupe but not in 89-92

There are also minor differences between the radio ant n the windsheild and the factory tinting.

It appears that the 88 NAGS glass (NAGS P/N T FW522) would fit all years and models, but again it has the radio antenna in the windsheild and a anti glare liner (like all the 'vert mirrors do).

BTW: the NAGS glass is the aftermarket North American Replacement glass not from Mazda. Most glass shops would use that P/N if you said you wanted the glass but not as a OEM part.

It is for a '90

I had recvd a few quotes already. I had found one here in San Jose for 200 installed....damn good price. I would like to keep it as OEM as possible. But, I will settle for an aftermarket as long as it is guaranteed.

thanks for the input!!!!

Acutally...I had just called my buddy, Jeff, @ Mazda Recyclers by my house in Rancho Cordova. He is selling me a mint vert windsheild for $50...

He also hooked me up with a windshield installation from the guy across the street....$50.

Damn...that saved my 50%!!!!!
