The fact that is says "West Germany" dates it to some degree......

"Liz Sekurit" is the fraulein that poured the glass for that windshield...
Don't know for sure but my guess is that the DOT 25/M173 identifies the test parameters that the glass had to pass in order be approved for use here in the US.
According to this site, http://www.carwindshields.info/windshieldmarkings
DOT25 is the manufacturer code
M173 is the model number code
AS2 is the glass position code
DOT25 is the manufacturer code
M173 is the model number code
AS2 is the glass position code
Just an observation.
The one with the VW symbol is original to the car. Or factory installed.
The Sigla is a German OE manufacturer, but a replacement piece.
This is a great subject for originality nuts.
I'm saving a factory windshield from a '70 even though it's scratched and high mileage.
