Noticed that this 914 build had a thicker rear window made, and it got me to thinking about whether that might help with noise in a six-cylinder car when the top's on?
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...7&st=0& Anyone have any experience with this. Is the 914's rear window truly flat, and therefore easy for an automotive glass shop to duplicate? |

Yes it is truly flat so if you could get a glass shop to cut you a piece of tempered glass
"slightly" thicker should be fine. Too thick you may run afoul of keeping it in place |
