I'm looking as well, for my 20' 1979 cc. but their measurements and mine (udp)
don't seem to line up. They say 36" wide for the windshield, but my console seems to be 37 and change? I'm pretty sure it's org console. Anyone have any ideas? of measurements from their boats?

You can build your own for $40-$75 not a hard project...if you have an old windshield to use as a pattern it is even simpler. Sheet of plexiglass, heat gun (paint stripping heat gun- for making the bends), jigsaw with blade for laminate countertop (cuts on the up stroke) drill (drill holes in reverse it melts it way through the plexiglass-holes for mounting), assorted sandpaper for wetsanding the edges smooth.

You can find more informaion on thehulltruth.com on how to do it 2-3 hour project (search archives on making windshield).

Just got my windshield from upd plastics, very nice, quick shipping. The fit looks just right, and it comes with a drill bit, grommets and spacers. was about $200 with shipping. I'm very happy with it.
