Just curious if any other documented cases with a 93-95 car that had the 90-92 windshield?

No argument the PG car was nice, and it was even more intriguing as to like taximan said. The judges didn't question the large cutout, It was the first thing I noticed.
The next ones you see just check the "windshield bug" and check the production date of the glass. I'm surprised that since you noticed the "size" you didn't already maybe "snapshot" the windshield bug. The likely hood of a BG install? Very slim!

Might have been and maybe? Inconsequential now "it is what it is"

Just trying to be cognizant of the owner and that he may have taken offense to such pictures.

I understand that and I maybe read the thread a little to quickly because this comment:

That car was an easy top flight, but I am surprised the judges didnt question it.
that somewhat hints that it was maybe something discussed. I guess the better question for "taximan" might have been how he assumed or knew there was "no deduction" for glass? Owners placard is generally displayed on car dash or windshield. Did you maybe note that and can contact the owner with a question of interest?

I did some C4 glass research for date codes and the "formula for date coding" changed in '93 possibly. I never new that and it became apparent when a '96 GS owner was looking for a specific date code that I couldn't confirm. After that was confirmed I asked here for owners to check and confirm theirs with no responses. I posted back what I believe were likely correct after restudying the information available. Is it correct? I'm quite sure.

Perhaps this thread will generate new interest for NCRS.

A '93 owner mentioned years ago that he had a GJ coded windshield but he went on to give the dimensions and the dimensions he gave were certainly for a later "window". I never asked more or questioned the owner.

The thread I mentioned is here:
