Rear Side Door Window Replacement: Notes
NOTE:
When ordering a windshield or door windows, verify if the vehicles is equipped with or without CE1 (RAINSENSE™) or Y91 (RAINSENSE™ and luxury edition) and order accordingly. The windshield and door windows have Quiet Tuning acoustic lamination. Due to the difference in processing, along with the difference in the curvature of the window, the optics of the window may appear wavy on a cross-car view from the outside of the vehicle. This is a normal condition and the windshield should not be replaced for this condition. The view through the window from the driver's position is clear and not affected.
