Clear Versus Tinted Door Glass
Second-generation Camaro and Firebird door glass is available in clear and light-green-tinted configurations.
Use OER #FD4704 when the vehicle requires clear driver-side glass. Do not mix clear and tinted glass unless a mismatched appearance is acceptable.
Related OER applications include:
- FD4703: Clear passenger-side door glass
- FD4704: Clear driver-side door glass
- FD4705: Light-green-tinted passenger-side door glass

The passenger-side glass, window regulator, tracks, rollers, guides, weatherstripping and window felts are sold separately.
Tempered Safety-Glass Construction
Part #FD4704 is manufactured from tempered glass, the type commonly used for automotive side windows.
Tempered glass is heat-treated to improve its strength. If severely damaged, it is designed to break into smaller pieces rather than the large, sharp sections typically produced by ordinary untreated glass.
Any chipped, cracked or damaged automotive glass should be replaced.
Installation and Adjustment Notes
Correct installation requires careful alignment of the window regulator, rollers, guides, stops and weatherstripping.
Before completing installation:
- Compare the new glass with the original driver-side glass.
- Confirm that the clear finish matches the vehicle’s remaining windows.
- Verify the 1970 door-glass design when applicable.
- Inspect the regulator, tracks, guides and rollers.
- Protect the painted door and interior trim.
- Position the glass without forcing it against the tracks or stops.
- Adjust it for even contact with the roof-rail and door weatherstripping.
- Check alignment with the windshield pillar and rear quarter glass.
- Raise and lower the window repeatedly to confirm smooth movement.
- Verify that the glass does not bind or strike the inner door structure.
- Check for wind noise and water intrusion after final adjustment.
Professional installation is recommended. Incorrect adjustment can cause binding, scratched glass, leaks, excessive wind noise or breakage.
Shipping and Inspection
This door glass requires oversized protective packaging.
Inspect the shipping carton and glass immediately upon delivery. Report visible carton damage to the carrier and retain all packaging until the glass has been fully inspected.
Do not schedule installation until the glass has arrived and been confirmed undamaged.
Care and Cleaning
Clean the window with an automotive glass cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth.
Avoid abrasive cleaning pads, metal scrapers and harsh chemicals. Keep the window felts and guides clean because trapped dirt or damaged felt can scratch the new glass as the window moves.
