PMDs answer to "Astro" glass

BVZ do you have any documentation of this or is it just a rumor?
Ive heard it was more of a supply chain issue.

Another view of the Hazard


Edit :
Somewhere on here years back , I think that was actually substantiated .
I was in on the discussion , but pretty sure it was someone else who dug up the info.

must have been during my Subbatical as I was always in on topic of birdglass.
You might remember me mention the one Sprint I had that had a clear one on one side and tinted everywhere else.
I would say that was more of a whoops we are out of birdglass and have to build the car.why not a plain tint then?
Or replacement at day 2 but I dont see any part # for the clear or tinted.
Whats the build date of this 68? I haven't gleaned all the details from the ad.But the round OSRVM would say early

Is the problem the bird decal obstructs the RV mirror?
