So far as I know ALL windshields SL/SL1/SL2/SW1/SW2 are the SAME 91'-95' the coupes maybe the same as well but I am unsure of that for all years.

hey wolf, anyway of checking that out for sure? we were having some glass pulled and jsut the other day ray asked me, are the coupes the same? i thought not cause of the curvature of the ends BUT it DOES look awful damn close, anyway we can find out for sure if the coupes are the same?

thanks

hey, i'd love to know the answer to this, too. My coupe has a couple of cracks that seem to be spreading, and there's a beautiful window in a sedan at the salvage yard that I can get for 20 bucks if I pull it myself.

Talked to my glass guy the other day and got a curious answer (he seemed puzzled too) there were 2 PART numbers for the windshields for "S" series sedans/wagons and ONE part number for the coupes (91-95) BUT the coupe part number was ALSO one of the TWO listed for the sedans and wagons! (the coupe prices were higher) He seemed to believe that this meant they all were interchangable but could not give me an answer either way...

Hmm... Well that fudges things up a bit, doesn't it?

Now I'm really stumped. Hmm. I may have to call a couple of places tomorrow to see for myself.

kc let me give you a tip, youll NEVER get a saturn glass out yourself.
ive seen pros crack 3 in a row, and they dont use piano wire, they use custom air cutters, saturn uses a special adhaisive that actually becomes like a hardened plastic when dry, a saturn without its front glass (weve driven them around the yard!) will actually flew going over bumps! the windhsheild and its super glue actually adds to the structrual rigidity of the car. that **** is tough man.

Hmm. My piano wire won't work? Darn. I can;t afford to pay someone else to replace it right now.

well heres a good tip call your insurance company and tell them something flew up from the highway even if you DONT have collsion MOST states mandate that insurance companys have to replace the windshield for 50.00 due to road hazards....
