Or just peruse page 3378. Jason Since you've done this already, what size did you use? I'm assuming 8' should be enough for two supports on the front windshield? Did you use two only? Also, how thick was your windshield? Mine is 1/8".....I realized afterwards, 3/16" is the minimum if I was to ever compete in SCCA.

Anybody have any ideas? I hit up Lowes, HD, True-Value, and the large private owned shop that has a warehouse full of materials. It's 1" x 1/8" x 96". Where can I find it? Online is cool too.
