Default MY09 2 Liter Accord - Numbers engraved on window

Hi,

I bought a 2008 MY09 2 liter auto Accord last week. It is a beautiful car. Its is huge and handles excellently. The body and engine are almost new with a few scratches on the door.

Only thing is the dealer messed up the tinting, it is showing circles now. I will have to get them to redo it.

Anyway my query is this, I have noticed that the numbers on the front windows and windscreen and diffrent from the rear windows and rear windscreen. The front has the same numbers for the windows and windscreen while the rear although having the same numbers for all is diffrent from the front.

Is this normal? Or does this indicate that the vehicle windows in either the back of front has been replaced?

Thanks

Welcome!

First of all, the 2.0 liter engine says you're not in the USA. So those numbers may be something that many of us aren't gonna know about. Is that number formatted like a VIN?

Default thanks you right

Hi Jim,

Yes I am in south africa.

My other vehicles had numbers on the windows and they were all the same.

It is some sort of ID number, similair to a VIN number. It basically shows that all windows are part of the original car. If you change any window the number will not match the original so you know if it has been changed.

I wanted to know if the Accord had diffrent numbers in the front and rear for some reason. I was hoping, otherwise it means I bought a car that was involved in an accident or the windows were replaced for some reason.
