Hi does your windshield have the black circle for possible mirror bracket attachment?
my installer stated that all come with it
im getting frustrated bc this is the 2nd windshield he ordered and first came with a circle bracket
this new one came without the bracket but still has a black circle which looks terrible IMO
any idea if there is a part number for non OEM glass without that black circle?

FL glass does not have the mirror mount and usually costs quite a bit more. You can fit the PFL glass and ignore the mirror mount or scrape it off if it bothers you. Or buy FL glass for more money.
I planned to scrape the thing off my windshield but eventually decided it was not really noticeable.
Whatever glass you get check ahead of time to make sure it has the tint you want. I think the shade comes in different colors and in some cases is not there at all.

Yea,i didnt notice any mount,my rv mirror is mounted to the ceiling,after 2 years with this windshield night glare is killing me.
I should have bought oem and installed for 150$ plus around 450-500$ for glass.
