Windshield question

[1975 Fleetwood Limo]

Wound the windshield from a '73 Sedan DeVille work in My '75 Fleetwood Limo?

I don't see a location, but I'm guessing no where near Me. There was a 76 limo at Pull a Part yesterday had a all good glass I think, and looks just like Yours. Went under water, but a really nice body.

Found a like new one, but it's in a '72 SDV, Would that work in My '75?

No unfortunately it wont. The limo, like the hearse and ambulance have commercial chassis specific glass. It will have to be for a hearse. I may be mistaken, other users may be able to correct me but i believe the windshield from a 71-76 hearse, ambulance, or limo will do. They tend to be a tad pricey. Good luck

I may be wrong, but I thought a factory limo like His and the One at PaP used a regular glass and a commercial chassis used the CC Hearse/ambulance/ and limo specific. I thought I saw where People bought limo glass and did not fit the hearse.

Oh im sorry you very well could be right. I thought it was a commercial chassis limo. In that case a 72 SDV should work. 71-76 i think. I apologize.

Hi,

I have the same problem here for my 76 Cadillac hearse.
My front windshield is broken and I can't find one for now. ( Notice that I am in France... :/ )
There is some others Cadillac for parts but I was wondering if the windshield will fit my herase ? I can have one from a 73 De Ville.

regards,
XAvier.

You have a commercial windshield. A Cadillac Deville will not work. The only company that I know of that sales commercial windshields is Pilkington. I don't know how hard it will be for you to get one to France. They are around $800, just for the windshield.

Pursuant to the topic of windshields, i copied down the glass information from Kevin and Christine's hearses yesterday. Maybe Atti or someone else can help decode. Kevin and Christine have 92 Cadillac full-size commercial glass coaches.

Kevin's Windshield:

AS-1 - (glass use code) - Indicates position in vehicle where glass may be used, based on optical quality. AS-1 is
clearest glass, laminated, and usually used for windshields.

DOT 177 (manufacturer code) - L-N SAFETY GLASS S.A.DE C.V. OF MEXACALI
M52 A (unknown)
00 3 4 LN5GL DW881 (part number?)

Christine's Windshield:

AS-1-90 (glass use code)
GG-M55 (unknown)
DOT 22 (manufacturer code)- GUARDIAN INDUSTRIES CORP
6624-NZ (unknown)

the dw 881 is your partnumber. I don't know if that is the right part for the car but that is the windshield part number.

We should start a thread that lists all the cc windshield part numberes for easy refrence.

[mr x]
