I am thinking about replacing my mirror glass. I know George carries it. Does anyone know if mirror glass for our cars is a special grade different from local hardware variety?

This was discussed recently.
Its a special beveled piece of glass that is necessary for the wink function to work. At least that was the case with my early mirror. Its doubtful your local glass house has it, & I was unaware that AA sells a replacement. |

This is the glass that George carries. |
