This is not an uncommon occurrence for me not being the one who dismanteled the truck . But can someone tell me if there is
a purpose to these indents at the base of the windshield .
Can't tell for sure from the pic but I think that is the "tabs" that help to locate the frost deflector. They were punched up to make a tab that the deflector sort of sets on or they help align the deflector. I am working on sanding my dash now and they are a PIA, because they are easy to sand off if using a power sander, which I have almost done to one. Also they're easy to bend up or down and break off, which maybe what has happened to yours. My dash is a 56- don't know if other years are similar....

They are very similar except the 53-55 are shorter and don't wrap around as much as the 56
Ok thanks guys I have one deflector hanging underneath but its loose and I haven't looked into it yet so I will assume it's just catching on the tabs as there are no screws installed .
No I definitely was not , I wasn't even considering anything on top of the dash . Is that an optional piece or standard because it looks like it would blow pretty good without it ? Thanks John .
Thanks guys I'll do a little local searching to see if there's any here first . Are they normally body color ? With our dollar tanked right now I will be avoiding any US purchases . The mid fifty one would be $ 200 for me .

Yes, they are normally body color. I've seen them chrome, but seems like it might flash your eyes driving in bright sunlight.

You can sometimes see them cheaper on eBay. As stated before 53-55 is the same, 56 is different.
