I called LP Areo the other day and asked about windows. The woman that
answered said they only sell Europa glass to Europa. She didn't know the
situation they are in. She told me all the other people were at Oskosh right
now and would relay the message to them.

Gerry Holland provided the address and phone and fax numbers for LP Aero
Plastics, Inc. to which I will add the part numbers:

Windscreen 1460
Door windows, 1461 and 1462
It has been a few years and I may not recall correctly, but I recall that
mine were shipped from Long Beach, CA (clear replacements for the dark
tinted windows provided with the kit).

Best regards,

Bob,

I need my windscreens also and I'm sure there are many others like us.
