    How To Tell if my Beamer E66 has an Infrared front windshield ?

    Trying to locate a new windshield for my beamer and am being asked:

    (rain sensor), infrared glass
    w/o infrared glass

    How do I know if I have IR glass ?
    I own mostly junk. Except the Porsche, that's kind of cool.

    Maybe with a VIN decoder? But that would also require the option code for it.

    I figure it may have been standard on E65/66, but I don't know for sure. What's the parts website? RealOEM.com? Maybe it will decode it automatically.

    Post the last 7 of your VIN and maybe I can check ETK (BMW parts catalog).
