Hello guys,
i like to have a windshild on my argo, because of the weather, mud and trees... IMG_7552.jpg
I would take a 4mm lexan plate. But i want to know how to mount it best.
Between my windshield frame with seals and maybe glue, or front over the frame fixed with screws.
I dont want to bore 15 holes into the windshieldframe...
But how to fix it without, any ideas?
My idea is to cut the lexan plate that it will fit with a U-seal into the frame.
I will mount some u-steel pieces into the four holes of the frame to fix the plate.
Greetings from Germany
I've never used this before myself, but I would suggest using windshield adhesive around the entire perimeter, and then maybe a few fasteners in each corner. I think that should hold well.

I just built a windscreen myself using 1/8 Lexan in a frame made from 3/4x3/4x1/8 angle. I rounded the top corners but left the bottoms square. It is a fold down but is a bit smaller being 16x44. I went to Speedy Auto Glass to inquire about windshield adhesive and they are switching products so gave me a free tube. It is VERY sticky. I also had some small threaded screws with flat washers and nuts 3/4 in long that came with something(?) and used 4 of them to lock in the Lexan, one in each side and one each , top and bottom. I hope to finish the support rods, clips and support posts for the windshield when it is folded down, today.
Ok thanks.
I mounted the Lexanplate, i will fix it tomorrow additional on the top line with glue.
The first test was sucessfull,
driving thew deeper puddle will make you also a bit wet
Could anyone of you send me a picture of the mark or signature on the original windshild? Scheibe.jpg
