HOW DO I KNOW IF FACTORY TINTED WINDOWS WERE ORGINAL ON MY '57? IS IT ON THE BODY TAG? WHAT CODE? WILL I LOSE POINTS IF I USE THE TINTED? WITHOUT AC TINTING WOULD BE USEFUL HERE IN FLORIDA (SUNSHINE STATE). THANKS, GATOR

It may show one of these codes: EZI, A01 or A02

Hi Gator,

In addition to the codes on the Trim Tag, I would also inspect the glass.

The name E Z Eye appears on the glass. Most replacement glass did not "brand"the glass - as the originals were.

Also, there are date codes on the glass. I would make note of them, and see if they "all match". If original, they should be the same, or very close.

Any tint is a help in Florida. If the car was originally equipped, as noted by the Trim Tag, then it would be wise to replace it - since it can matter in judging.
