And now I'll be able to see through a decent windshield!

Soapy Water is correct, sometimes I just use glass cleaner. Works well too.

Re: installing windshield
Ive read somewhere that weed eater plastic cord will work or is regular rope better?

Re: installing windshield
Wouldn't know, never tried weed eater cord.
I'd still go with cotton knot as you can soak it in soapy water and make life a little easier. You can buy the stuff by the foot at most hardware stores. I think it's actually listed as "braid" or something like that, but from the marine world, I've always known it as "cotton knot".

Re: installing windshield
Ive never tried it either, but I dont think it will. The best rope to use is usually 1/4" to 1/2". At least thats what I always use. But Whatever works.
