Hey Bill,

I haven't grown a pair of Kahonas to risk cutting the 40 year old plexiglass. So I probably spent $100 for nothing.

Denning I dont blame ya. I would probably preheat the plexi with a heat gun or hairdryer and start with a 1/8" drill bit. Then slip a hotwire through the hole and follow the pattern you want. I'd also have my toe's crossed.

As far as the fish go Zet I'm waitin on you to come show me how

Actually, I have decided to skip any penetration of the windshield and look into matching the existing air-scoops ad put one or two in that can vent air in under the dash...
