10's don't have a pin spacer, but there is a rubber spacer. And I'm pretty sure the magnet won't hold through 3/4" glass.

Look at page #9.

isn't mp10 magnet rated for 3/8 thick glass only? some people with 1/2" use it but say it falls off once in a while, I don't think it will work on 3/4" glass.

Yep, MP10s don't have pin spacers and certainly won't hold on 3/4" thick glass. Did you mean you have the MP40?

The MP10 does not have ANY pin spacer. You will not need the rubber pad for 3/8 glass.
