Does anyone know if the Type RA windscreen is different than the standard UK/WRX job.
Thanks

Can be a difference in the tint colour, so be careful as the uk ones are a bit lighter in colour

The Jap imports usually have a bronze tint and the european models usually have blue or green

I thought there may have been a difference in the weight, sure I read somewhere the RA's had light weight glass.

Also japan manufacture has moved to mexico, where they are cheaper so expect a slight variance in weight, colour!

There are 3 colours, green, blue and brown, which one your car uses is normally dependent on model/year.
