Windshield Compatibility for 240 200

I developed a small crack in my 1985 windshield a few years ago, and the glass shop replaced the one with the chrome trim with the newer style windshield and weatherstrip. This is almost an encapsulated windshield, and there is not a chance of a leak. The down side is that I lost my ability to have the chrome trim.

If the "some" is an auto glass tech, their lists will show a different number 91-93, but that's because they sell it with integral rubber trim, highly valued compared to fooling around with the aluminum trim plus clips. The 89 will fit as will any other year 240. You'll need a new clip set, though, with the 89's glass.

You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.
