DONT BUY A WINDSHIELD TO CUT IT, ITS NOT A MATTER OF IF BUT WHEN IT WILL CRACK.

Cut seems  into the corners of where the window would
Lay, it's easier to cut into the fiberglass. but never compromise a windshield but cutting it to fit.

You and others have arrived on the planet of "Catch 22".  There are multiple windshields produced that have enough surface area to cover the opening BUT they all have different side to side bow dimensions as well as top to bottom bow dimensions.  IF you try real hard, you might just be able to find someone who will sell you another "correct" windshield or you might initiate a "group buy" of maybe 20 windshields from the Chinese boys.  On the economical side, you find a windshield of the correct size area, find a glass shop that can cut it down for you (maybe even  locate in another state or cut it yourself) and then modify your windshield opening to fit the glass.

AAAAARRRRRGGGGG!

I was so proud of myself because I had the foresight to buy an AGP windshield several years ago -- until I BROKE it a few days ago!  So now I'm looking at the cut-down-a-Lumina-van-windshield option.  I've read several posts about it, but what I haven't been able to figure out is:  can the Lumina windshield be cut to fit either the coupe or roadster?  I have a roadster kit of unknown make, but the AGP roadster windshield fit it perfectly.  Thanks as always for any advice.  Onward and upward (3 steps forward, 2-1/2 back, as always!)
