I don't know what you used for a backer but it seems to have futzed what I would have expected. What year of car and what's the production date on the drivers door?

August of 1995. The A is not visible in your pic, only its shadow.

See this.

A is September. That's why I asked that he check production date on the door and confirm year. He could have any year and had a Sept '95 date coded windshield installed.

I'd say correct original for your build. You might check the doors to make sure they're a matched pair but likely won't match your windshield,
