lines, or both. A bit hard to find however. How they did it was, if
you look very
: carefully, you'll see the factory glass mounted on raised metal
lips that were ground down the same thickness as the fresnel lens
when that option was chosen.
Thanks for the information. I see the lips on my back. Guess I'll keep on the lookout for the fresnel back. My back is part #31716.
