Windshields

My Subaru dealership confirmed there are 15 blue SVX windshields in their inventory.

Westampton RDC (NJ) has 3
Indianapolis RDC (IN) has 3
Atlanta RDC (GA) has 3
SDC Warehouse has 6

Part 65001PA300

Can anyone else confirm this? Parts Manager says he trusts these figures 100%


Since all part numbers were superceded to this one, it would be nice to know if any of these 15 ever had the original part number on the box ending in 210 (bronze). Maybe an actual hands-on count is in order to see exactly what number is available and colors.



The same RDC also shows 7 license plate bracket in stock 55792PA010. Did a new supply of parts just surface?

Any color of any year that had a gray interior have the blue/ green windshield.
All tan interiors have bronze windshields.


THE ONLY EXCEPTION

The 1992 Claret, which had the gray interior and bronze glass.

Re: Windshields: UPDATE

UPDATE

After talking directly with SOA this afternoon, here is the latest information.

There ARE 15 windshields available for the SVX.
They are all blue. No bronze anywhere in the system anywhere.

SOA strongly implied that this part number is not superceding old part numbers and were combined into one, but rather a new part number for a remanufacture.

They said as the old numbers for both the bronze and blue glass were depleted from inventory, they ceased to exist. However, demand was still present so another batch was made to fill need, in one color only, with a new part number.

There is the possibility that the windshields are old stock that were in Japan, and recently shipped to the U.S., but they would have retained the old part numbers.

The concensus is that these windshields were recently manufactured (within the past year) in small quantities, with the new part number. They have been in U.S. Inventory less than 30 days.

When the supply is exhausted in U.S. inventory, they may add more, but only in the blue color. Maybe the color was altered slightly to be compatible with both interiors.

Cool. Here's hoping they do that with some other parts that are running low...

Re: Windshields

Maybe I'm smoking the wrong thing tonight but, could this forum be making SOA pay a little more attention to their orphan child? If so, I think I know who deserves a good portion of the credit.

Really, I just picked up one of three (now two) A/C pressure trinary switch assemblies left in the country. So what happens if it goes out again??? I guess I'll have to sell the car because no A/C in S.Texas is the worst.

I have a policy about trying to buy eletrical parts that see elements new rather than used, especially if were talking about 20yr old used parts. But if worse to came to worse and it might, I would have no choice. I would have to rely on sites like this to get parts as SVX's are limited in this part of the country

Re: Windshields

Subaru routinely restocks parts as the inventory here becomes depleted. This is not abnormal.
