Our studies under laboratory conditions
consistently prove the plastic crud windshield
strip..

Ok, so I really don't know.

I don't see the point in keeping your windshield
in the car if you're in an accident great enough
to send it flying.

That VW eliminated the chrome strip in later
model Vanagons looks like loosing the windshield
is'nt an issue except when hitting a Volvo.

And how often does that happen?

But I could be wrong , I've been wrong before.
