Will PlexiGlass Melt?
I am doing a HID retrofit in my Civic Headlight and I was wondering if I use plexiglass that's 1/8 inch thick as a shroud. Will it melt due to the high heat from the projector? The projectors sits on the plexiglass. Im fearing that it will warp or melt. Any advice?

plexiglass and acrylic are the same thing.
trade names Plexiglas, R-Cast, Perspex, Plazcryl, Acrylite, Acrylplast, Altuglas, Polycast and Lucite and is commonly called acrylic glass or simply acrylic.
hope this helps
