If its flat glass, most glass shops can cut it and have it tempered. Tint colors and shades are sort of standard also if it happens to be tinted. Sam

tail gunner, what i did when a tree lib broke the port windshield on my Aquatron : bought piece of lexan from Home Depot, took some brown paper and made a template, cut the lexan with a very thin metal blade in a sabre saw, took frame apart, and installed the lexan. cost approx $60.00. it is better with 2 people when installing the lexan.

That is probably a good ideal, but after googling for hours i believe i have found a few vendors' for a replacement peice, depending on cost that is one area i'll let the pro's do the job. ...........8) It seems they also use Lexan. thank you for the tip.
