Installing the new Power Flip windshield from Can Am. It was quite a long process but well worth it!
Also a few of the SP Tools I used on this part of the build:

Did you ever trim the windshield for fitment with the intrusion bar mount? If so, do you have a photo of the finished project? Thanks.

Love the video I have seen you and others install this windshield with the extrusion bars. Question is that no one has been able to answer is will the wiper kit fit in there with the extrusion bars installed. If you know please help answering, the hardware looks to not have the room

So getting ready to drop 1100 on the power flip...So now that you had it for a while would you buy it again? The only other option is going with is all glass brp setup in my opion...Or possibly bent metal....Thoughts would be greatly Appreciated....Thanks

They absolutely do. Instead of putting the bolts in from the outside and using supplied nuts, I put the bolts on from the inside through to use the mirrors to tighten.

The hole was already there from where the mirrors would mount before, I just used a little longer bolt from the inside going out into the mirrors.

I had just turned the two mount bolts for the frame around that utilized the same two mirror mount holes. The windshield bolts then held on the mirrors.

Great video! I've been searching for answers on how well an electric wiper would work on the power flip. I'm wanting to street legal mine but didnt want to spend $1500 to find out it's going to be a problem. Do you have any experience or plan to add the wiper?
@RustbeltMechanic
@RustbeltMechanic 4 жыл бұрын
I’d love to see them be able to add a modular wiper to this but it does not exist... 2 reason... 1. This isn’t a hard glass. The wiper would break down the “hardened plexiglass coating” and eventually damage it. 2. The current wiper system mounts to the body below the windshield. You would not be able to use the power flip function without unbolting the wiper arm
