      Hey man thank!! Tbh I just watched alot of YT video and decided to just send it and film it 😂.
      The only thing I would have done differently is gluing the window instead of screws. I scratched some of the polycarbonate while piercing the selftaping screw. So be aware of this if you doing it like me

      @@THPcars Thanks for that tip. My old windows have no rubber , so I might have to drill & screw, or come up with the rubber. Was thinking solar grey for windshield and dark gray for the rest. I just race 1/4 mi. Do u think thats to dark ? subbed !

      thanks for the sub buddy! I saw some people use industrial Velcro instead of glue! That could be an option also. And about the "grey" are you talking about a tint ? @175

      @@THPcars Interesting , industrial Velcro, thanks going to consider. That is how my wife describes my dog 🐈‍⬛. Tinted sheets of Lexan, don't want to go to dark on windshield.

    Nice idea using the green tape - I am going to borrow that technique 😊

      @carlloftin2850 you have to be very delicate when you remove it but it's working well 🤟

    this is awesome gives me some ideas to do on my mk3 supra project! looks great dude. does the poly make a lot of heat in the cabin? I work with poly sometimes at work and practically made a green house/sauna once out of it

      Thank dude!
      About the heat I couldn't really say...
      the car always sits in a garage and is mostly used on a race track. I dont really daily the car but on the racetrack I did not see any cabin heat difference
