I had my good friend and customer Dennis L make us some negatives for our glass replicated exactly how they were found on the glass. From there I purchased an etching kit and etched our replacement glass. This car had clear glass so that is what we replaced it with. As you can see, mine were etched on the inside and backwards. This is exactly how I found them on the original glass.
The etching is actually quite simple though very nerve racking the first time you try it. I have had it done before but this was the first time we tried it and it was quite simple. It is however labor intensive to make sure that everything is done correctly the first time as you will want to experiment several times on a piece of donor glass before attempting it on the good stuff.
I found that it was going to be easier to etch it after it was installed adjusted and in the car. This way I could insure that everything was completely level and directly above the window felts. It worked out fine and as long as you follow directions and have everything needed it works very well.
