i just use clear lexan sheets. you just simply cut the size of the windshield and pace on. you could also make the effect of rolled down window with lexan.

How do you bend the lexan ? If you heat the sheets they'll create a distorted view.

i suggest you just use the cracked windshield, glue it back together and tint it with a very dark car tint

I feel your pain! The part of a kit that is the most difficult to repair.

I agree with the others that your best option would be to go to Tamiya, inc. direct. Although I'm not Canadian, but when I order parts from Tamiya to the UK, it is cheaper that going through a supplier (e.g. HLJ). Also, Tamiya are more approachable than Hasegawa who do not deal with public parts requests.

Guys, he's getting a free new windshield, so I think he's all set!

umm...really you dont have too heat up the laxan. you just cut the size of the windshield bigger than normal, and then you just glue with the curvature of the windsheild from the inside

you could get them at your hobby store i think. laxan sheets are just like them molded 1/10 scale r/c car bodies that you see cear and painted over.
