I think the whole project cost me about 8 bucks and 1/2 hours work time. i just took my windshield to the hardware store with me and found the pvc that fit. i have 49mm tubes so whatever size that turns out to be i dont remember. very easy project never the less.

 

Now that's more like it!

49 mm = 1.93 inches

 

Sounds like 2" pvc.

 

You don't want to have the pvc larger than the original tube size. 1 7/8 or 1 15/16 should work damn near perfect. I don't remember exactly what size I used and I'm at work right now but when I get home I can check the measurement on mine to be sure.

 

I put my detachable windshield back in the plastic bag and cardboard box it came in.

 

Got a couple of these on E-Bay.. Memphis Shades dealer going out of business.

 

I just came from the hardware store, a lot of 1 1/2 and 2, but nothing much in between (with all the fittings). 1 1/2 won't work. Suggestions?

 

Nice find.
