What are the opinions out there? should I go tinted or clear? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,270 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,270 | It is your choice - both are available.
The original E-Z-Eye tinted option was, I think, a tint for the entire piece of glass (on any window, I think).
I have seen reproduction windshields that are tinted all over, with a darker shaded band at the top.
I have 1954 trucks with and without the E-Z-Eye glass. I have no opinion, based on experience, on saying that the difference is significant (but, it must have been, I guess). | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,293 Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum | | Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,293 | Interesting , E-Z-Eye glass. So along with the tint question I suppose another would be which vendor is recommended. I too have a 1954 3600 that needs the front windshield replaced so I find this post from dad8084 to be of great interest. Thanks!

I am 6-4 and that dark tinted band was always in the line of sight or split the line of sight with clear and tint. I found that band to be annoying and decided not to do that again. | | |
