MR10 Lexan windshield question...

[Feralc]

Sorry to revive an old thread, I need to replace my windshield and I like the ideal of the Lexan version so I do not need to deal with this anymore.
Jay, after reading several threads it looks you are a backdraft dealer, my car is number 35, you mentioned there are 4 or more shapes of windshields over the years, does that mean that the glass version I can get at the backdraft website might not fit?
How can I know the exact dimensions and/or shape of my windshield?

Feralc,

You can do this sir, there are a couple of threads on this site and probably many more utube videos out there showing the process.
You just need to get a piece of Lexan MR10 on evil-bay (or elsewhere) for about a hundred bucks, make a construction-paper pattern and buy the correct tooth jig saw blade. I did it in about 2 hours and it turned out perfect.

What thickness is the Lexan, I would assume you don't use the rubber?

Thanks I will look for some video somewhere because I have never been good with cutting and things like that.
I'd rather have the one that is pre cut, or get a glass and put some clear film to protect it.
