Just picked up a 1977 Glastron V192 Sea Rider w/ Evinrude 175 OB. Only spent the last two years outside, rest of its life was under cover. Should clean up well. The windshield hinge broke right off the bat, and I’m having a hard time finding a replacement. Where do I go for a replacement? Thanks!

Here’s a pic of the plastic hinge that just slips into place.

I am also looking for that same piece for my 73 Futura. Have you found anything yet? My local marina parts store said to try a Glastron Dealer but there isn't one anywhere near me.

have you guys tried taylor made (you know, the company that made the original windows)

they even re-named their aftermarket website so noobs can find them.

I searched through there the other day. I didn't see the right shape in their product line. I may try and call and see if I can get a better result. Thank you.

you have to call. they literally have about 5000 different shapes, of which 4990 are not on their web site.
