any idea if a 265 force windshield is the same as a 240 sport specifically the side pieces. i called taylor made but they need a part number to cross refence and good luck getting ahold of baja they never answer the phone. i have a 265 force parts boat with a good windshield hoping its a direct fit any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Honestly I think they're alittle different the 265 I believe has a bigger windshield. Either XT will chime in he is the Baja expert. You can email him also. Very knowledgeable. If you want I can measure my 240 side glass for you if you'd like.

The Taylor Made part number for the 240 Sport windshield is #179684. It was also interchangeable with the 220 Sport. The Baja 265 is a taller windshield that only interchanges with the Baja 235 model. I just got a parts 240 windshield for my 220 this week, and I promised one side wing to another OSO member. What side glass do you need?

XT, I have a 235, and some of the plastic "piping" that covers the channel where the wiring runs has shrunken / broken off. Is this stuff still available? What about the weatherstrip that holds the glass?
How difficult is removal / replacement of these windshields? I would like to take mine apart and have the frame bead blasted and powder coated silver. Never been a big fan of the black - gets hot, and it rubs off where the cockpit cover rubs over it.
Thanks!

I bought my 220 Sport with someones clear plexiglass job that looked like crap for the two front panels. The 240 Sport donor boat windshield I purchased is a perfect match to my 220 and as I disassembled the side wings I noticed the glass pattern is the same for both sides and only the frame is different. I need to put together the best set on my project, but I should have good glass for two repairs, but only one set of Port side frames to sell. They are easy to take apart with just a 1/8" drill bit on the rivets.
