Association is an industry recognized organization.
I
have an E-Z Tag on my Windshield. Are you able to transfer
the sticker to the new windshield without damaging the
tag?
By using a heat gun and
a sharp razor blade after the windshield has been removed
we are able to transfer the E-Z Tag without damage.
We can transfer all other window stickers as long as
they are not damaged. See

these too.
