Had one replaced on my 90GL. Was told that this is one part that has not changed over the years. Try to keep the seal intact, this cost 110$ or so. If you do not want to bear the ouch of VAG part, PPG and Pilkington make good aftermarket replacements. They meet DOT standards for the US. THey also offer you the op to have that extra tint on the brow like an american car. (I chose not). -Tim Barnegat, NJ
