Reproduction bolt five piece tinted glass set for the Mercury Cougar coupe. This set does not come with any window trim so save yours for reuse. There are three versions of this glass. The clear version is just that, clear with no tint. There is a tinted version that will have a slight green tint to the glass. There is also a second tinted version that is called smoked and this version has a grey / brown tint to the glass. The clear and the tinted versions are reproductions of original pieces where the smoked version is not a tint option that was ever offered on an early Cougar.
Note that this glass does not have the faint Car-Lite markings in the corner but rather very bold, large SAFETY GLASS in raised letters that cannot be removed without special equipment. Many feel a few minor scratches on an original look better than the raised white lettering found on repros. Keep in mind the fit is slightly better on the used original.
*NOTE* Windshields are sold separately. If you absolutely want a windshield from us, we,ve got’em. However, because our windshields are required to ship by truck freight, you can save $150 by sourcing one locally. Can’t find a Cougar windshield; look for a Mustang unit of the same year as your Cougar. They are the same!
