One might be for a Focus that has an electrochromatic mirror.

Pretty sure it's the third visor. Call your supplier and have'em check if not sure.

RON IS CORRECT. BOTTOM COWL FASTENER IS MADE ON GLASS. GLASS IS ALSO SLIGHTLY SHORTER I BELIEVE.

Re: Ford focus w/s

glass is same size, 03 focus takes either or so you don't know which windshield it is until you see it, i have taken the bottom molding off and used it as a 1345, and had to take $50 price difference in the shorts.

Carlite shields have the nags no. right on 'em, as almost all of us know. Ask the car owner/customer to check or take both along. Not rocket science.

Most do, go check. If it's pretty new, asking is free...or take both if it's costing 50.00 bucks extra for the wrong one.
