Default 1997-2000 Windshield fits a 1993?

I'd like to buy a new windshield of my 1993 SC300. The only windshields available from Lexus is for a 1997-2000 https://parts.belllexusnorthscottsda...611124151.html
Has anyone installed this part # on a 1991-1996? A local installer told me to make sure and buy new trim pieces but they are not available from Lexus so are we supposed to reuse existing pieces? Is that a good option? Maybe older years trim doesn't spark on the 97-00 windshield?

I think it's best to just go to a car glass shop and have them measure for sure. A windshield from a Lexus dealer will probably cost you double. Up to you
I'm on my 3rd windshield

Tint is different, grey (yours) vs. green but pretty sure otherwise the glass is the same. Not sure about the trim pieces.
