Re: [DML] Cracked Windshield

[Warren Wallingford <warren@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Harold's right about cracks being caused by body distortion.  There is a 
lot of flex in the Delorean.  Be careful of trying to close or open 
doors while the car is on a hoist.  They don't fit the same as when it's 
on the ground.  A radiating web-like crack from one of the lower corners 
of the windshield indicates a sharp hit in the front.

If you want to change the a-piller trim, now's the time.  Most of them 
have a flap of vinyl that is glued to the fiberglass before the glass 
goes on.  The windscreen has to come off to change it.  The iron is hot.
