Looking for a 62 beetle windshield
« on: December 06, 2017, 02:37:32 PM »
Hey all. I'm looking for a 62 beetle windshield. As long as it can be used as a template that's fine too. Let me know what you have.
If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

Call Lewis Auto Glass in Bellingham or Lynden. I have ordered Bay windshields from them a bunch times and they can get them easily and also a fraction of what a local glass shop on this side of the border wants. I would think that your would be available from them too.

I had one cut at my local Brocco auto glass for $90. Took my old one for a template though. Slight green tint.

Honestly tempted to just order one from J-Bugs... Just hope it fits
