    It uses the stock Ranger windshield. The foam tape is nothing fancy, you can get it from NAPA.

    3M 3/8 thick single side adhesive foam tape.

    This works good for keeping the dust out and light rain etc, but I have never tried it in a full on downpour...

    I've used Lexan and other polycarbonates for windshields before, but they scratch REALLY easy if you dont put a lot of effort into maintaining them.

    With the plastics I ONLY used Pledge to clean them.

    Spray the Pledge on heavily, then only wipe it from top to bottom using a soft cloth. No side to side... you want any scratches you make to be vertical, easier to see past them.

    Re: removable windshield

    I found one pic I had forgotten about. You can clearly see the arms used to hold the window in.

    They are hinged on the top, rotating down to slide over a stud mounted on the cowl. No visibilty issues when they are down...
