Glass date codes

I am restore a 72 442 and I am looking for a list of date codes for the glass. I have a list of date codes for Corvettes but I don't know if they are the same for al GM vehicles.

Thanks

All the glass in my December of '70 built '71 is original, truthfully I don't even know what letter/number the date code is but if you can link the Corvette info or give some examples and where to look I could see if it's the same on mine.

My right rear door glass has the soft ray safety Flo-lite LOF deal then below it is AS-2 on the left, to the right of that is TT, below is the solid tempered line then below that is DOT 15 then M74.
I never even noticed that my windshield reads "Shaded Neutral" and "Laminate Antenna" before.

They are the same for all GM. I've used my 70-72 Corvette Judging Manual to date the codes on my '69 4-4-2, '70 GTO and the '71 Corvette and they are all consistent with the codes shown in the Judging Manual.

The date codes used by LOF will be the same for Olds and Corvettes (and everything else).

But if you really want to learn about glass markings, check out the research paper published by the Camaro Research Group. (google them) There's lots of good info at that site.

Thank you all for the info. I just wanted to make sure the Vette codes were the same.
