After delays and other production runds, we have word that the factory green tint door glasses (OEM specs) made by LOF are under way. As previously noted $150 ea side/ $300 pair. Add $15 box/packing + UPS> I will address all the emails over the next 1-2 days and promise updates.We are expecting delivery 1st week of November.
We will accept 50% deposits now thru credit card or PayPal. I will email all folks and any new ones who want to email at info@prosourceglassintl.com The PayPal address is richardt@prosourceglassintl.com
Please wait for delivered totals before remitiing. I will address all shipping charges. It is only minimally more for more than 1 set shipped. We selcome pickups and deliveries in MA/NH area.
As for the grey tint they will be run off seperately within the next 2 weeks but just dealing with the green tint. There are 30 sets of green tint from what i can see being manufactured in the good ole USA. Thanks, Richard Tankel

This is great news that they are LOF glass. One quick question. Is there any possibility that the glass can be made with the period correct LOF logo versus the new current LOF logo that I assume will be printed on the laminate?

It may be a selling point for the guys who are interested in correctly restoring their cars.

Thanks,
Fred

I'm still interested in the smoke gray tint as soon as they become available. Can you please post a picture of both tints side by side?

Send me an e mail when you are ready. This will make nice winter project.

I agree with Fred that since LOF is doing it the old logo branding would be a selling point for restorers. I know many would pay extra for it over a generic glass.

My guess is "the factory green tint door glasses (OEM specs) made by LOF" is like LOF did on the org. Fiero glass and that LOF is not making the glass.

You are correct. Actually ATI (Auto Temp) in Ohio is the plant that makes the glass for LOF but with LOF's tooling. ATI does a lot of the OEM glass for all 3 major US car manufacturers. We tried to go around them and have ATI make it direct as it would be cheaper but LOF owns the tooling and rights contracted to ATI. My guess is it will be newer logos. But having the glass made in the US with LOF tooling and considered OEM is much better than the alternatives.
It's the best we can do and still keep pricing well below the retail pricing. The tint and the fit should be right on. Possible the logo looks like the originals will know soon.
