 Topic: Windshield on 83 NautiquePosted: March-25-2021 at 2:14pm |

Hey there I'm looking for a Windshield for my 83 nautique.
Honestly just needing to replace the main glass on the windshield. The sides are fine. Went to a local glass shop but they said they couldn't do it because of the curve in the glass. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, or if anybody is looking to sell a whole windshield please let me know. Thank you so much! |

Tell them that the glass isn’t curved- it’s flat.

Correct. They don't know glass. Go to another shop. As Tim mentioned, the glass is flat. It's cut to size tempered and then the frame puts the curve in it.

Not sure if they are the same size but I have the template and the jpeg file I sent to the glass company from my 85 SN. Find a company that makes custom shower enclosure glass. Keep calling till you find someone that can cut a piece of glass from a CAD file and temper it in house. Will save you money on templating and fees.

I have a complete windshield for a 1980 SN . I don't know if it will fit or how you would get it to WI?

80 and 83 windshields are different widths if I am not mistaken
