Default Lexan

MR10, scratch "resistant" both sides. After replacing 3 windshields for very minor rock chips that turned almost instantly into cracks from one side to the other I installed Lexan. Use Maquires #18 plastic polish, micro fiber towel and it will take a 1" rock at 70 and only leave a minor scratch. Nope, sorry, not DOT approved but neither are my tires .

Clois;

The only other thing I've noticed and not mentioned yet, is depending on the appication, I've seen Lexan windshields "vibrate" a lot at high speeds if there is no center brace, made for a "blurry" sight I could not get used too,looked like everything was out of vocus,went back to good ole glass for the race car and anyway, Lexan for my cars was about $350.00 compared to $105.00 for glass............

Hi Guys,
I need a new windshield for a customer who is restoring his Cobra. I also need the lower rubber seal on the frame too. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

I just found a new crack in my windshield. The Lexan windshield sounds
interesting. Does anyone know where I can get a Lexan windshield for a
FFR mk 3 roadster in Southern California?

I've never measured the thickness, but it's the standard Cobra replica glass and frame, chrome over brass.
