    Breaking Auto Window

    For a side window, roll it down halfway. Then look at the edge. Laminated glass will have 2 thin pieces of glass with some sort of film or plastic visible between them at the edge. Probably also a label in the corner of each piece with the glass type on it.

    Breaking Auto Window

    Tempered glass was traditionally the only thing used is for side and rear windows. A simple center punch will shatter the entire piece. Laminated glass is used for windshields and now very common to be used for the side windows. More common than you think. RAM pickups have used it for almost...

    Upgrading From 1994 200 Overnighter - Need Advice

    Get the brake lines inspected on that 2005 before you tow anything. GM started using coated brake lines around 2006-2007 but the earlier years weren’t coated and can rot away.
