Grün getönt oder Klar Heckscheibe (Englisch) - Stout001 - 08.04.2009
I am a little confused. Which was the original rear window on 80 Cabrio. Green or Clear?
I will order a new top and don't know whch one to choose. Any suggestions? Which is the most common on replacement tops?

Good morning,
as far as I know the original rear windows were always clear.
Have a nice day,
kAlle

Guten Morgen kAlle,
Thanks for your info.
I have a few more questions.
I've never seen a green rear window on an Audi. Is it good looking or is the clear to prefer?
Which is the most common on the after market?
I wonder why they use green Wopavin? I see that green is more expensive. Is it better quality related to the original?

Hello Lars,
afaik kAlle is right: Audi only built in clear rear windows.
IIrc Holli69 (one of our Admins) got a coloured rear window when replacing his old top. He even may be the only one. 
Maybe he finds this thread and answers your questions...

Hello,
Geri also got a green tinted window.

Hi,
i think the most of the after market tops have green rear windows.
My "Acker"-Top also.
The appearance is in my opinion very harmonic because it suits to the other (colored) windows and it´s not a flashy green.

Depending on manufacturer/repair shop, aftermarket tops could be ordered with a green-tinted or clear window. As I was replacing mine, I got asked extra about the rear window colour and offered a choice between clear and greenish tinted. Opted for clear.

Hi!
Take clear - it will become green during its lifetime
