    Lexan windows

    Anybody have lexan in their Foxes? I am looking to replace some glass and want the windows flush mounted. Are there frames fabbed for this kind of shit or what. I just talked to Harwood and the tech was saying the flush mount glass is oversized to fit the frame and most people bolt it to the existing channel. I am removing the rear window now and see that the frame is further than 1/8" away from flush.

    I vote keep the rear glass so it stays looking as stock and clean as possible.

      I am assuming this is for a race car, the main benifit here is that Lexan is 50% lighter than glass.

        I would trust them since they mass produce it

                      There is no decision weather or not this is going to happen, but was looking for a solution to mount them.
                      As for keeping it clean and stock looking? LOL

                              There are tons of other ways to drop weight.
