What is everyone using these days for a Fiero extended windshield?
I know this was discussed in many threads in the past but It’s been a while. Maybe someone has found a better solution. I have seen a few late model cars that may fit the bill but had not taken any actual measurements yet. Does anyone know if there’s a suitable common windshield that can be used without having to have it cut down? With the exception of the AD that is. They are getting to hard to come by.

Carlos's phone number is on a thread called '355 spider kit questions' on page 3 of general kit chat. (i'm using my cell phone so can't copy the link for you). Carlos's forum name is nsx, i'm sure he has a windshield frame surround and tray that takes a geo storm windshield. Hasn't dave tried various windshield options in funnywheels before using the custom ad part?

Great information! Thanks all very much. I’ll contact Carlos and get the scoop on the Geo windshield. Anyone else know anything else about using the Eclipse or Neon windshield that DeLorean00 mentions?

What about windshield wipers? What needs done to relocate them? Just out of curiosity, what's the donor car for the glass?

Not like a sweat box in the garage. Now it's time to get some real work done. |
