Vintage Motorsports (Cashburn) response is the most practical way to proceed in my opinion. My Backdraft Cobra (#1360) developed a passenger-side crack from bottom to top shortly after purchase. Backdraft had new glass windshields on back order. Well, after seven months of no windshields in stock, I installed a Lexan MR10 using my cracked windshield as a template. I am pleased with the new windshield and clean it regularly with micro-fiber cloths.
I did order the chrome over brass frame and glass for installation to give my windshield more support. Well, when the new chrome over brass frame arrived, it required modification to fit my cobra. I needed to drill holes to fit the new frame and purchase new visors and side wings to get all to fit. In short, I returned the chrome over brass windshield assemble and installed a Lexan MR10 windshield that was cut from a larger sheet. Job well done for about $100.00
