Default 98 35'Lightning windshield, cabin doors, carpet replacement

Can anyone give me direction on the windshield replacement , split half's with metal support on the centerline, no frames, 3"-4"windscreen flare. Cost, acrylic or lexan. and also the replacement of the cabin doors (port bottom
broken), has the white acrylic doors,(I dont like the design) forward hatch and companinway hatch. Any suggestions on cabin carpet replacement, I was considering a vinyl instead of carpet New to performance boats, its an oustanding running boat. Any info would be greatly appreciated. What a great source for informaion! Thanks Much

I have the same windshield on my 2000 with alot of crazing. I asked the same question and I was told it was lexan. So when I get a chance I'm cutting at least 2/3 of that flared portion off. It's right in my plane off sight. Let me know if you find a place for the cabin door. Mine has a 5 inch crack at one of the mounting screws.

Thx 253,
Got everything complete on my list now. Talked with Dave at Fountain, he was great. Are your fuel gauges accurate? I was on empty, light on and filled up with 42 gal per tank and gauges read full??? I expected to put 67-70 per tank .. for the 90 gal tanks. Mine bounce around quite bit.
