Well, everyone does it that way, not just Saab. However, Saab glass is definately different in some way - look at it through polarized sunglasses, compared to other cars, the difference is interesting. >> >>When we extricate people from cars, we have a saw we use to cut through >>the windshield, hand saw, 3 teeth per inch.

If so, call up your volunteer fire department, and ask them when they're doing their next extrication practice. I doubt that they'd let you play with the toys yourself (then again, who knows?), but it's fun just to see the process. Dave Hinz
