Ok you guys, who can decipher the markings on this Mini Glass window???  image.jpeg   46.49K   1 downloads

The 'e2' marking represents the European country that certified the glass. I know it is not the UK as it would be e11. Don't know what the rest is sorry, possibly relevant standard tested to.

Yes...I'd read the French connection before posting. However, how do you DATE the Windows. I know the 1.. Has some significance, but what does the 982 stand for????

Why (if you'd forgive my asking) would you want to date a window? :/
Tyres I can understand as rubber deteriorates as it gets older but windows?

if you want ones of the correct year for the build. or just to see if they are original.

 

or if they are all 1985 in a 1961 car.......

what is the year of the car as that will reduce the searching.

Ahhh now it makes sense x

I would say the windows are original, and the car IS a 1992. I'm trying to tie down its exact age....Alternator says, 20/92,
Distributor 04/92, Boot Latch 21/92, Wiper Motor 06/92.
It has the earlier external bonnet latch, early AC location and Controls, and rear opening quarters, as fitted to earlier Spi Minis.
First registered on 1st September 1992.

Interesting! Just checked mine ........4 so April 94?

Minidizzy, Finally, someone has answered my question. Many thanks. The glass is slightly older than I thought, as all the electrical components are dated April to June 1992. This just confirms the age of the car. Jim
