Where is the AS-1 line on 2009 Corolla?

I would like to put a tint strip on my windshield but need to know where the AS-1 line is so I can pass inspection. So does anyone know where it is on the 2009 Corolla? I read on the interwebs that it was at the bottom of the black dots surrounding the rear view mirror. Is that true? Or is it hidden somewhere else less obvious?

The line on the glass that says A-S1 is the line. It is roughly at the same height as the dots near the mirror, but it has (like glass should have) the line marking the specific spot.

Great, my car does not have that mark on the windshield. Good going Toyota. So now what do I do? I can here the inspector now, "I cant pass this car with that tint strip its too low." .

I've never seen factory glass without that marking. Are you sure you have factory glass? Does it say Toyota on it?

I thought the AS1 line was required to be on glass, as it is a safety marking? What type of glass is in your car?

i have toyota glass and it has the the as-1 line. right on the edge of the glass on the drivers side.

and the dot matrix in the center i slightly lower than the as-1 line so my strip covers the as-1 line.

I know Toyota uses 2 manufacturers for the windshield on the 10th Gen, perhaps they don't include an AS1 line. Odd.
