How to Check the Production Date of a Car Windshield?

[LeElena]

Here’s how to check the production date of a car windshield: 1. Look for a code in the lower left or right corner of the windshield. The last or second-to-last row will have a number and several small black dots, which indicate the production date of the glass. 2. The number represents the production year of the glass, specifically the last digit of the year. This should be determined based on the vehicle's manufacturing date. For example, if the vehicle was manufactured in 2007 or 2008, the number '8' would correspond to 2008. The difference between the glass and vehicle production dates should not exceed 10 years. 3. The small black dots indicate the production month. Some windshields have the dots before the number, while others have them after. If the dots are before the number, subtract the number of dots from 7. If the dots are after the number, add the number of dots to 13. The result will be the production month of the glass.
