Glass in Stock Roxor windshield?

[WY_ROX]

Is it possible to have glass installed to replace the plastic stock Roxor windshield? Wasn't sure if the stock frame could accept glass?

I have been wondering the same.

Ok, here’s my take on the concept:
Since my (2019) plastic windshield has a tendency to pulsate/vibrate in and out at highway speeds, it concerns me that it might possibly come out of the frame and make my face uglier than what it is.
So, I believe I could have a glass windshield made to fit, but I don’t want to spend the money on that and then find out that the glass one does the same thing because the frame is plastic. So… here’s what I’m going to do….. I’m going to get a sheet of 10 gauge steel and use the plastic frame as a template to cut out the hole in the steel for the glass. Then I’ll put it on the roxor and take it all down to the glass shop and they can make a windshield to fit.
I have wipers on it that were installed at the dealership, and they mounted them on the bottom. I prefer them on the top, so I am going to take this opportunity to move them up.
I’ll take some pictures while I’m doing it and probably provide a little running commentary to help everybody get it.
Gimme a couple of weeks. I’m off on vacation for now.

For anyone who is wondering, I spoke to Wade at diesel freak and he recommended I take the roxor to a glass shop, and they can install a glass DOT windshield in the stock roxor frame. He said they have done it a number of times and to have the shop use the plexiglass windshield as a template. Once the windshield is mounted drill holes in the frame below the glass to mount the stock wipers.

A cj7 frame fits nicely and is easy as the wiper holes are already there. Just get the wiper assy and install. Was an easy fix for me.

That will bolt onto the Roxor? I thought that need mods to the roll bar?
