November 2, 20213 yr comment_630876 Just checked the original windshield removed from my 7/70, and it measures 7mm (.275") thick. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/65998-1969-1970-240z-windshield-thickness/#findComment-630876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 4, 20213 yr Author comment_630915 Is there some factory documentation that can verify the OEM thickness? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/65998-1969-1970-240z-windshield-thickness/#findComment-630915 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 4, 20213 yr comment_630942 From the US L-Drive fiche, item "9", I assume from the image below "T = 6.0mm" = Thickness = 6.0mm. Same on my R-Drive fiche.

November 4, 20213 yr comment_630947 Interesting, mine is definitely closer to 7mm thick, and to the best of my knowledge is original, I've owned the car since 1978. Here are a couple of pics while measuring. First one is lower left corner, 0.267" (6.78mm), near the Nissan OEM marking. And the second is 0.273" (6.93mm) at the upper edge near center. Possibly 6mm is a minimum tolerance?

November 4, 20213 yr comment_630954 @CanTechZ Front is 6,76mm and rear 3,85 mm acc. to the glass manufacturer. I measured the following front: 6,52 mm and rear 3,66 mm on my 78" 280Z. I don´t know exactly where they got that information, but as I´m aware off there where just so many glass thicknesses available and together with the intermediate foil it comes down to the values they supplied.
