Default Lexan Windshield

Does anyone sell these for a 92 civic? If not how thick does it have to be to pass tech? I guess the car will be in the hotrod class eventually.

Options carrys the back half kit for $551.00 w/ is rear and two sides. The full race kit includes that plus the sides and windshield. You have to provide a way to fasten the windshield yourself. The full kit is $1,024.00.

I am assuming you mean the 94-01 bodystyle since in your sig you list a 98GSR. The back half kit is only the rear window and goes for $276.00. The full replacement kit stays at $1,024.00. Don't know why the back-half one for the DC2's don't have sides. Every other one did. I'd cal FAL for details.

I found all that info., thanks. I only need the windshield because I already have the windows for the doors, and the back half is pretty dang cheap.

Or nuts and bolts. Did you heat it before fastening it? I figured it might crack on the back window because of the shape.
