Just curios if anyone has made their own windshield assembly for a glass insert/wipers, and if they have any advice. I priced out the windshield and wiper kit and well….. I am going to price out laminated glass, aluminum vs metal to save some weight and wiper kits. Pretty sure I have found my next project

If it will open 3-6" for airflow ....Make two.

If it will open fully, make three! :)

The Armor Tech one is close, but folding down onto the front hood will create problems for me. I'd rather it tip up on gas shocks.

@CumminsPusher made his own and it is nice, but beyond my fab skills.

Not completely home made, but did solve the problem. I bought a washer kit off eBay for $18 and two manual wipers still need to install

Make it 4 if it does that!
