UPDATE FOR WINDSCREEN ON THE SATURN SKY !!!
The windscreen will be available when you take delivery on your car.

It's made from 3/16" OPTIX, which is a scratch-resistant thermoplastic. All edges are beveled and flame polished. The $80.00 price tag plus $12.50 shipping anywhere in the U.S. is a great price.

As soon as the website is available, I will post this information. During the interim, please feel free to contact me with further questions or comments at [email protected].

For those of you who don't know the windscreen he is talking about...view it here:

As for the windscreen itself, two questions... are you taking preorders? And second, how about laser etching?

Interesting that the wind screen doesn't have to be removed

 

[ishot3bucks]

Seems like I may want this! How does this differ fom the factory wind screen (besides the extra money!)

The link directs you to the company's main page. The picture on the main page doesn't show it on a kappa car. Click on solstice and you see this instead. Which as you can see looks identical to Kappa Sphere's windscreen that we all have been looking at for some time. So what's the difference aside from the company who is selling it?

The installation instructions show it being held on by magnets. Is this the same as Kappasphere?

Allante's Windscreen Instructions

KappaSphere's Windscreen Instructions

The most noticable differnce I saw is that it said Allante's can be left on top-up or top-down and that Kappa's must be removed to have the top up. The cutouts look exactly the same though. I dunno.

When clicking on the testimonials page, the title says "Ford Pontiac Solstice". I also don't see the holes used for the loosened screws, I only see the magnets. Will that scratch the car having to slide the magnets up and down the paint?

Magnets? I would think it would have to be well fastened at 100MPH. I think the Kappasphere version either uses or replaces existing screws in the car. If I remembre correctly. But then it is a simple lift out process to remove it when you want to put up the top. If I understand it correctly.

The kappa sphere windscreen is held on with screws with bobbins to protect the scew heads from scratching the glass

Are you using the product on a Solstice? If so do you like it?

Don't have a Solstice. Just went to the Kappasphere web sight and read the installation instructions

"SKY" Windscreen

My windscreen can me mounted two ways. I have sold over 50 Solstice Windscreeens in the past 10 days. Go to E bay and type in Solstice Windscreen and it tell you everything about the windscreen and direct you to my Solstice Site. The Solstice and the Sky are almost identical cars and as soon as the car is in the Dealers showroom this month I will take new pictures and post them. Im thinking of having the Sky Windscreen have a chrome trim.

I like that idea of a chrome trim

Me too. But I think an option for a brushed look would be nice also

I would like to know what the pros and cons are to the different heights of the windscreens ? if that is possible SkyBaby-07

I would like to know what the pros and cons are to the different heights of the windscreens ? if that is possible SkyBaby-07

I would like for one of these suppliers tell us the optimum hight because I had a Miata that came with a windscreen that did a great job and then I added a style bar (roll bar) and we had to tilt it about 30 degrees and lost the effect. So I know from experience that hight does make a difference. I'm wondering if these after market guys aren't designing for aesthetics instead of function.
I am going to buy one but I may have to do my own tests after I get my Sky. But why should I have to do that when these guys are making the profit?
