cutting windshield
Well I went on a 150 mile ride this weekend with some friends. Was suppose to be all back roads. Wound up coming back on the highway. I, as it turned out was the only one without a windshield. Had I known I would have put mine on. The wind buffeting was unbearable.
SOOO, I get home and pull out the WS and WTF, it wont fit. Turns out the new 7" bucket I had to install to install the truck light is blocking the WS from mounting.So I used some painters tape to mark on the plexi. Then I use my Dremel with a general purpose bit, similar to a sheet rock bit but with a wider flute and the flexible attachment. High speed, touched it up with a sandpaper disk in the Dremmel. Worked great and was easy.
Sorry no pictures. Wasn't sure if I was going the screw it up big time and didn't want to document it (the Fuge up).
so if anyone is contemplating cutting their plexi, it's no big deal.
