    Windshield questions?

    If any of you have any questions pertaining to windshields, feel free to ask me. I've been in the glass business for around 25 years.

    I'm thinking about offering a group buy on e30 windshields, also. I have to resolve some drop shipping issues first. Who should I contact about permission to spam the forums?

        M3 windshields only fit M3 bodies.

        They aren't interchangeable on e30's.

                are you sure? first hand knowledge?

                my glass is origional (21x,xxx miles) and needs replacing as it's terribly pitted.

                OP, do you know of any heated windsheilds for the E30? i've read of a bloke in england that fitted one. I need it as i don't have HVAC at all anymore.

                  What brand is the glass?



                  I don't need one, got a new one upstairs. Just asking for the general masses.

                    I've never seen one in the US. There may be a heated version for Northern Europe or Scandinavia, but it's news to me if there is one.

                    BTW, I'm not 100% sure that the M3 glass CAN'T be installed in the regular e30, but the interchange books and my faded memory say it won't work.

                    I've been wrong before.

                      I use Pilkington unless otherwise requested.

                          I would be interested in seeing your group buy pricing. I am in need of a windshield.
