Default v20 windshield ?

Any suggestions where to search for a windshield for a '88 V20 center console. Got into some rough water a couple weeks ago and one of my riders reached for the rail and grabbed the windshield instead. Cracked from the center bottom screw to the upper left corner. Been searching a little, but no luck yet. Thanks

I got to make a run to a budget boats today, i'll take a look and see if they got something as well as how much, but you might be better off just getting a piece of glass cut to fit, if the mouldings good should be able to trade it out if your real careful.

If you don't find one, and honestly probably won't...a friend of mine went to a glass shop and had a new plexiglass windshield cut and shaped to fit his console...it looked factory when installed and didn't really cost a helluva lot...you didn't post your general location, but if there's a shop around here can do it, it probably won't be too hard to find one where you are...

Another consideration is, if you do find a good, unscratched windshield, SHIPPING it won't be cheap either...if it weren't for shipping costs, we'd be firin' parts east to west and north to south...

Thanks for the info. There is actually a fellow that owns a glass shop around here (Athens,GA) and he does a lot of restorations. I will check with him this week and see if he can help. Meanwhile, if anyone bumps across one, let me know. Thanks again.
