Which option correctly identifies the VIN Notch placement among windshield features?

• A. VIN Slot
• B. VIN Window
• C. VIN Notch
• D. VIN Cutout

Answer: (C)

Understanding where the VIN appears on a windshield hinges on recognizing the specific feature used to display it—the VIN notch. This is a small, fixed notch located along the lower edge of the windshield where the Vehicle Identification Number is etched or molded. It serves as a precise reference point for technicians to verify the correct glass matches the vehicle during installation and inspection. The other terms don’t describe the standard VIN location: a slot suggests a through-opening, a window implies a separate pane or viewing area, and a cutout would indicate a larger removed portion. So the correct descriptor for where the VIN is found is the VIN notch.
