the window glass depends on its location:
the windshield is .17 inches (4.4mm), the
front side windows are .14 inches (3.5mm)
and all other windows are .12 inches
(3.15mm). All fixed windows are bonded to
the body.

Ceramic Coating as Third Sun Visor
Sash for Plenum Chamber Cover
Windshield
The windshield is available with an infrared-
reflective metal vapor deposition coating.
This coating reflects most of the sun's heat
generating infrared rays. Conventional
reflective glass shields a vehicle's interior
from far less solar radiation by absorption.
Always set the windshield on its
side. Otherwise, the sash at the
bottom and/or the sealing lip at
the top can become damaged.
