Default Freedom Tops

So I am looking to cut up some freedom panels to make windows in the tops. I have some plans and I am going to do a write up I just need some panels to cut up (not brave enough to do my own). So if anyone is interested in getting rid of some panels I will attempt to add some windows.

This sounds like a good idea. I am anxious to see the results.

Okay guys here is where I am at. I have not been able to find any cheap doner tops. I don't have a huge budget but i would really like to do this! So I am going to use my own tops. My question for all of you is does anyone own a plastics shop or know someone who does so I can get some cheap custom cut peices of plexi-glass? If you guys could help me out I will cut these things up and see how they work! Cheers.

I love this idea........just keep thinking about the cabin pressure in certain driving conditions. Make sure you give a lot of thought on how you fasten the plexy-glass. If I can come up with something I will be doing the same.
