    rt188 windshield replacement?

    Mr. Frog met the side of the windshield and I have a spider crack on the left side where it screws in. Doesn't effect it any but I want it replaced. Anybody know the cost off hand?

    I would have to look it up, but I think around $150.00 or so.

    It’s a little over $100 I broke one of mine (almost sliced my wrist open��) so if they ever crack remove them because they are sharp as shit when cracked. Looks kinda cool without the windscreens though.

    I would think that if you called the manufacturer parts dept. they might be able to tell you

    $105 when I bought mine a couple years ago. The quality of the windshield is one of very few pet peeves I have about the boat. It breaks way too easily.

    I have a cracked one as well.

    I'm not sure if someone grabbed it to stand up or if someone slipped / fell into it and cracked it?

    A buddy grabbed mine for support to the front step and broke it. I ordered one for just a bit over $100 from Ranger and replaced it. On a previous Ranger the replacement windshield screw holes had to be marked and drilled by me. That was a nervous job to do. Thank goodness that the RT188 windshield already had the holes drilled.

    I went ahead and took both of mine off due to the fact that they are brittle. I just bought the boat two days ago brand new and one of them already had a little crack in it from a kid or somebody grabbing it in the showroom. It looks better anyways as well as if you do decide to take them off down the road there will not be any fading from the Sun to leave an outline.
