The glass shops will tell you it's wrong because their parts books don't list a gasket and gasket type windshield for later models. (after 1980) GM made a change in very late 1979. The body sheetmetal is the same, only the glass is different and the earlier gaskets and glass will fit just fine. It was/is a common swap here. Our 1994 came with a glue-in type and was replaced with the earlier gasket style. We told them is was a 1978 and everything fit great with no problems.

Fits 1971 thru 1980....gasketed windshields.
