Default 2001 coupe

Apparently there are glass companies out there that do not know there is heat as well as an antenna in the back glass... Safelite Auto Glass brought the wrong glass to be installed. There should be 3 hook ups... The glass they brought only had 2. One on either side. Missing the one in the middle. I have to wait another day to get my glass replaced.

Also, does anyone know if this back glass comes tinted from the factory, or is it aftermarket film put on?

ANY tint film is aftermarket, not OE.

Well after 6 weeks of fighting and arguing with lots of folks. I finally got my Vette back with the correct OEM back glass in it and properly installed... Safelite glass doesn't have a clue... DO NOT LET THIS COMPANY WORK ON YOUR VETTE. They finally admitted to me they can't fix my car and suggested I take it to Chevrolet... All they had to do it say this up front.
