The chassis numbers listed above reflect the windshield versions as installed on the production line. All three versions can be used in any 9000 for
replacement purposes. However, please note that Version I uses a different cover moulding than Version II and III. These cover strip mouldings are not
supplied with the windshield kit. Please consult the 9000 Spare Parts Microfiche and any current Microfiche Discrepancy Bulletins to ensure that the
appropriate cover moulding for each particular usage is on hand.
*Version III is not yet available as a replacement part. Version I or Version II are currently available and may be used for all applications. The bonded
straps on Version III are used solely as an installation aid and do not contribute to the integrity of the windshield in the car.
