hello,
thanks for your reply. i decided to remove the windshield to see if any other spots need treatment. it appears that the rust is in its early stages and i caught it early enough, but we won't know until the windshield is pulled.

i hope i won't have to go through what you and art has gone through.

about the windshield mfr, the current windshield is 9 years old but with low mileage, and i think it's a pilkington, not chinese yet when installed.

i have another good volvo windshield as a spare in the garage i pulled some years back. it is an original volvo euro windshield in great condition, lucky for me.

i agree, almost all the windshields, even pilkington have succumbed to being made in china.

i did replace my 940 windshield with a volvo (dealer) windshield when it was painted. i bought it on ebay at a steep discount.

my luck is running out though.

regards,
byron
