Is the brand on it FYG? I wrestled with the FYG windshield & the "probably Brazilian" new-in-bag-swapmeet windshield seal earlier this year with my '75 and finally got it in. No leaks! No cracks! No scratches!Amskeptic wrote:A shout-out to jackstar for helping me install a totally incorrectly sized Made In China $123.99 windshield yesterday at 5:30PM.
Time to install a Bay window Safari windshield! Ignore the leaks.....Amskeptic wrote:asiab3 wrote:Have you found an acceptable piece of glass to get you on the road?
It was a breezy and wonderfully present drive to the glass shop. I could literally reach out and pet the pedestrians. I could feel immediate temperature changes, hear conversations at sidewalk cafes, I could hear my own engine sound reflecting off of buildings. I loved that drive:
Off to Atlanta for the holidays and to pick up those NOS interior panels from storage and hopefully make Kris's fuel injected bus run correctly (the Bishop GA appointment).

I will let you know the brand. Windshield is coming out again today or tomorrow so I can *sand the upper corners down* until it does fit correctly. I hope I can hand-sand this thing down. What if it takes all week?airkooledchris wrote:Would also like to know the brand of glass.

Not looking forward to replacing my delaminating Sigla glass next
Where did you purchase the vent wing seals? When I bought my bus in June, it came with a seal w/out a tag. I installed it since the other was missing. What an exquisite POS it is.Amskeptic wrote:I will let you know the brand. Windshield is coming out again today or tomorrow so I can *sand the upper corners down* until it does fit correctly.

(p.s. my water leak test was an epic FAIL - every single vent window leaks)
Ain't nobody purchasing nothing around here. The vent windows all have VW seals, but they are getting less compliant.wcfvw69 wrote: Where did you purchase the vent wing seals?
