after doing some JDM CAPS - NORTH AMERICAN CAPS cross referencing...the windshield seal (spacer they call it) is the same part number, there is no reason why a 1992 Monty windshield shouldnt fit.
I called a local glass shop and they said if I order the wrong one and it doesn't fit, I still have to eat the cost. so looks like I'm going to take a gamble.

Well, I never did understand why the Monty glass didn't fit. Everything else does.
Good luck, hope it works out. That stone looks like it would have caused a new underwear purchase too.

Yeah, I don't get that one either Nigel. But holy crap that musta been some rock. It was this time last year (might've even been to the day - I'd have to look it up) that a rock flew off a truck and smashed my passenger's (LHS) window all over my interior and me. Definitely a wake up call! Let us know what you find out - hope its a direct fit for you buddy! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

its okay...I only found glass in my hair when I took a shower last night...and a piece in my ear haha.
I have gotten away lucky though...I went the last almost 2 years without having one single crack/chip. this makes up for 2 years of good luck.
