C900 Windshields - Are they still being made? Posted by BFJRestoration [Email] (#3230) [Profile/Gallery] (more from BFJRestoration) on Sun, 30 Apr 2023 18:49:06 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
After having my windshield replaced about a year ago for a large rock chip, I managed to extract my nice new windshield to remove the metal brackets at the bottom (that prevent the windshield from launching itself in the event of a crash) as they were completely rusted and were allowing a large amount of water to leak and collect at the bottom of my 900S. After gently scraping out some kind of foreign sealant in the rubber gasket for about 3 hours that was applied by the previous owner that made the leak situation even worse, I managed to install the windshield back in one piece... well until I had about 5 inches of gasket left to tuck in on top and then I shattered the damn thing.
I'm gonna call the fella that originally installed it a little later on (guy knows his stuff), but does anyone one know, do they still make new windshields for the C900? Mine was a bronze one if I remember correctly.
*sigh* There goes $300 down the drain... ha! and don't worry, I cleaned those sunroof drains while I was at it to rid any and all leak potentials.
