Porsche windshield question.....

I just bought a 2009 C2S and I want to confirm that my front windshield is the original factory installed windshield. On the lower left corner it says
Saint-Gobain Sekurit
made In Czech Republic
Is this the factory windshield?

Thanks DCI. I had no reason to question it but was just thrown off by the stamp that said made in Czech Republic. I would have assumed it was made in Germany. I just purchased this car and it is a beauty. I am just naturally a bit of a skeptic so want to check it all out.

No telling where OEM parts are sourced nowadays. I had a JEEP with a transmission supplied by Peugeot. I think even Boxsters are or were assembled in Finland under contract.
