Vitres teintées ou pas?

[Okrasa82]

Salut

Etant en phase de début de remontage de mon Oettinger,j'aimerais savoir si le fait d'avoir toutes mes vitres + pare-brise non teintées était normal?

Merci d'avance

Hello !!
L'oettinger n'avait pas les vitres teintées d'origine et ce quelque soit la teinte carrosserie. Donc tes vitres sont OK.

like mine

but, original windows are not tinted

Really? So the original Oettingers came with clear, non-tinted windows? So how come we have green tinted windows in our cars Jos? Did someone switch them out at some point? I thought all GTis came with green tinted windows as standard back in the days. At least they did here in Norway unless you went for the "Rabbit GTi" which didn't have the recaro seats or tinted windows...

original is clear and yes mine is tinted, i am the fourth owner that's why

It seems that VW Norway sold MK1 GTis with green tinted windows as standard from 1981. According to a "GTi scholar" on a Norwegian forum, tinted windows was never standard on any GTi except the Pirelli Edition. Was it an option to buy the Oettinger with tinted windows back in the days?

Hello JrF,
Jos mentionned that tinted windows have never been offered even as an option on the "french" Oettinger 16s.
For your information Pirelli Gti (W65 +W64) were available with tinted glass for free. Nevertheless itdoesn't mean that all pirelli had tiented glass!
