I have to get the windshield out to finish some stuff and I plan to replace w/ Percys SG. Does anybody have any personal experience removing the windshield.
I have done this before a long time ago(differ car) with a little hand held cutter bend to a 90 and a little pull cable for the other hand. It looks like the glue is deep though not like before.I figure this glass is worth something if I can get it out in one peice (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Any tips?

The rear lexan has really good shape as it comes from them. Already has the curve in it pretty neat just a little oversize at the bottom. Which is the first thing I want to run by you guys.
So the install kit has taper head flush mount screws. So counter sink the holes on the lexan correct,with the taper shaving type counter sink bit? What would you say is a good margin for the screws to edge of lexan to keep from cracking out in future or in general... 1/2" ? I don't know how sensitive this stuff is. I have checked 4 hardware stores for the aluminum T stock. Oh I have found tubing in all sizes which might be used for some other things I'm gonna do. Found aluminum flat bar,angle bar,channel but no damn T bars. The channel stock though might be alright for braces,its double sides might provide good strength? Seems most rigid and less twisting the angle stock does when flexed. I also thought I could just screw two pieces of angle together to form a T. Coarse thats double cost (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Any thoughts? I'll put picks up when done,its going to be tinted rear and the black out edging. Edited: To add the pics, did not tint windscreen http://community.webshots.com/photo/149499...283295175TJGPHb http://community.webshots.com/photo/149499...278602143bKIOxz http://community.webshots.com/photo/149499...278601802BLXunR http://community.webshots.com/photo/149499...278601517ipeHSe |
