  • Vetter 4 Windshield

    Looking to buy a second Vetter 4 windshield, with plans to cut it down 6" or so for a summer shield. That way I can keep my tall one for the cold season, swap to the shorter one for summer.
    Thanks.

      Yeah... thanks Cbug. I knew he does, but hoping I might find one a little cheaper than $151.85...

        HEY, GUYS...

        Please forgive me... I just now realized I have posted this in the wrong forum!

        If TC, or one of the Mods could help me out by moving it to the proper forum please... the "Want to buy" instead of the "Want to sell", I would appreciate it!
        Sorry.
        Thx,
        Bob

          I think there is a tech tip about making your own with a plain sheet of plexiglass, sure would be cheaper then buying one from "vetter".

              Mods: Thanks for correcting my mistake!

              CBUG: Thanks... that wouldn't be too bad. I'll check it out.

              Psycoreefer:
              I'll have to read up on that... I just wonder how well that turns out since it's curve-formed?
              Thanks for the tip...
