Early 914 windshield issues? Options

[Bates]

I have done several searches, but cannot find the thread on repair/checking potential windshield pillar issues of early cars.
I have a 1970, and it needs a windshield replaced, so I am trying to plan ahead for any other issues.
No sense installing a new windshield and then removing it later to do any reinforcing or repairs.

any help/links appreciated.

I read a post that I thought was on 914 World.
Who ever posted had quite a few pictures, showing the brace installed on cars after 1972.

The bracing adds to the rigidity of the A pillars at their base.

The repair/reinforce post must have been in a restoration somewhere other than 914 World.

The post may have been from PMB when they were reinforcing the windshield pillar like the race cars had. It's an extensive support brace made from a few different pieces. If you look for their Sports Purpose Build, you should be able to find it. I'm doing a similar support on mine.
