So my 914 is in great shape except for the windshield frame is bent. This fact and the fact that buying a new windshield in the Kansas area is seemingly impossible. I am looking for ideas on removing the windshield frame and replacing it with some sort of faring or whatever you suggest. What has been done before? And what looks good? Any ideas would be a huge help. Thanks.

Every glass shop I called in the area, and that was probably 20 or so, said that none of their suppliers could get one. I didn't think it would be this frustrating. I am out of town for a few days so I can't take a picture. I think I can probably fix the windshield frame, but don't want to expend the effort if I cannot get a windshield for it.

Windshields are in stock in mass at the regular 914 suppliers so are never a problem. The problem is the windshield frame, but with good measurements available from the guys on this site, any bodyman can straighten the frame for you DON"T CUT THE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!! We can all guide you through the repair and windshield replacement. |
