| Full ones are mr-10. They last pretty good. Use a squirt bottle and a blade. That cleans it well. Run it in the winter and don't run it in the summer.
I would buy an EMP one. There the best out there. |

| I run a full automotive glass windshield only when it's freezing cold.I don't like running a full windshield because gas fumes swirl around in the cab and I hate breathing them.Also having to clean it at every stop and they fog up if the weather is just right and then you can't see real well. | |

other than rocks and stuff that should clean real easy and keep lots of scratches off and you can rainex it You can rain X it. That would be fine. Either way you are going to have to clean it on the trail. |

I just got my first full windshield (a Polaris) and agree with Bobby's usage experience. Also bought a $20 body wiper and it scratches the PoPo windshield. | |

| If you want to save some cash go to a glass place that sells pexi and cut to specs then go to your dealer for clamps thats what i did and for a full windshield i only have 45 in it. Going to make a half for summer cause the 1 i have is all cracked up. I use plastic polish on mine but 1 bad thing the sun glare tears me up. Need some sun visors. | |

| For what it's worth: I run a 3/4 folding windshield. When it is all the way up it it keeps most, but not all, of the wind and debris out. When it is folded down it is really not even in the line of sight when driving but still keeps water and mud from rolling into the cab when hitting streams or big puddles. I'm pleased with it - only time I wish I had a full one is when it is really cold. | |

| On the Rhino I had a J Strong fold down, it was nice in the winter but after it got scratched up it was useless on a sunny day, ran with it down most of the time. On the XP I just got the tilt out from EMP, in fact I just installed it yesterday and haven't had it out yet. I am planning to ride tommorow so I'll post a report of what I think of it after I try it out. | |
