I'm assuming your webpage is http://www.windrestrictor.com/ since it's not in your post.

Based on this assumption, I was looking at your selection and have a question and a comment. (Which could be outdated upon your web update.) Can the custom etching be anything? Please post a picture of an etching with each illumation color choice.

I can vouch that his windscreen with LED's is amazing....u should see how it lights up in the evening...and u can choose colors also. The artwork in the etching is super...a real artist

I have an order pending with him too. :thumbs:
He is creating the art work I wanted, will email it to me for approval and I will have it here waiting to install it myself as as I pick up my Red Line.
Installation is certainly simple enough.
Mine will be the Saturn logo (minus the word Saturn) and bold slanted Red Line with a bold line under Red Line.
I want "Red" lights. I now have to decide if I want it lite when my running lights are on or just when I apply my brakes.

Winscreen installation

What's involved with the installation of the custom illuminated windscreens and what's the wait time on one of those orders...now that I'm in wait mode!

Does it have to be dealer installed if your not handy with tools or wiring?

 

[marlboromike]

it doesn't have to be dealer installed...most of us who have installed it have pics posted...just ask or look for FAQ's from SKYBABY or MarlboroMike...

By the way, I suggest u have it attached to brake lights because during daylight for constant lighting, you cannot see it that well....but in the evening, it is a WOW. Attach to brake light...u won't regret it.

I also LOVE HIS WORK..... we have tried getting good pics of it.... and lit up... will try again tomorrow night...... not sure what i am doing wrong.....SkyBaby-07

 

[bluestang50]

I really like the idea of having it hooked up to the brake lights but i have one question about that. How bad does it block the view of your rear view mirror when it is lit up? I'm on the edge of buying one for my dad for his birthday. He is #6 on his dealers list for a redline.

 

[SkyBaby]

It hasnt blocked my view at all.... just a nice glow.....SkyBaby-07

I too can vouch for the etched windscreen. The etching was fantastic. I have been in contact with the vendor several times and he has always been attentive. The screen is nothing short of spectacular when its lit up and now my blue sky gets even more ooooosss and ahhhhhhsss. Buy u wont regret it and ur sky will look so cool.

 

[marlboromike]

Although most places that tint tell u not to tint plastics...I did it on mine and it adheres well...just thought I would raise the flag if anyone wanted to tint their windscreen...

He supplies all you need, including instructions. I am in the process of ordering mine, but if you go to his website it is easy. Open the rear trunk lid, unscrew four screws, replace with supplied slightly longer screws, slide windscreen in place, tighten screws and connect wires to brake light wires.
And yes after reading the above threads, I will connect mine to the brake lights rather than the running lights.
What a great forum this is! :cheers:

Does anyone have a picture of the electrical connection and how to do it? I'm a visual type of guy.

 

[marlboromike]

Here is the visual

write me if need more info

 

[bluestang50]

Thanks for all the info guys and gals i will be placing an order on one today.

 

[qwack]

thanks, Mike...knew I could depend on you. Wanted to make sure it's something I could do by myself.

 

[lizzy]

Remove?

Does this one have to be removed when driving with the top up?

 

[GetAboutRL]

NO .. you can leave it in place with top up or down.

He provides clear tabs to prevent it rubbing against rear window.

 

[richm]

I have one of these on order too, and it should arrive today or tomorrow. Thanks for the install photos.

 

[migg750]

Make sure you use a wider washer than the one supplied. It spreads out the pressure, otherwise it will crack the screen when tightening. I spoke to Robert from Glowplates/windrestrictor about that and he told me he will add wider washers into the kit.

FYI I hooked mine up to the rear lights and not the break lights. I pondered the decision for a while but both myself and the speed shop that connected it for me thought it was cool enough to keep on all the time. Even my Dealer said it was hot and told me they liked it as is and not just when the brake light is on. LOL Now they want to add them to showroom cars. Of which they have one sitting on the floor.
