A UK windshield won't say DOT.

Most windshields prior to 1968 probably won't either. That's when the year Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 205 (49 CFR 571.205, S6) went into effect, and codified use of ANSI/SAE Z26.1-1996 .

Viper is an option.

Fyi, if you cut the windshield, leave the DOT markings. Otherwise, what was the point?
