Here are some photos of the tooling created for the new windshields. We *may* have some in hand at the open house...
The first batch will be WITHOUT antenna, and based on demand and response, we'll get some antenna ones made.

Is this some sort of tool for installing windshields for for actually building the dang thing?
This is tooling and jogs for manufacturing...

Not meaning to "nit-pick" at all ...but...IMO it should be possible to get the new windshields with both the DMC logo and the Sekurit markings. That way it will look original.
Also, thumbs up for reproducing the DeLorean windshield :)

You sure can, Stian! But there aren't a lot of buyers for $2,000 windshields....and because of the way certifications have changed over the last 30 years, the imprint could never look exactly the same, anyway. We've got the DMC logo on these and they're a whole lot less than $2,000!

Great job guys! Keep up the great work. Thumbs up!!!
I understand that having Sekurit making new windshields would be financially impossible, and there is probably some copyright issues regarding their name and logo. But if someone offered a cut-out template for the Sekurit marking thingy, possibly one could spraypaint it on?
Good job on having at least the DMC logo on the new windshields! Photo???
Where are the new windshields being made? Just curious...
Keep up the good work James! :)

These windshields are made in Europe.

I honestly could not care less about whether or not the windshield says "Sekurit." If you REALLY need those 7 letters on your windshield, here you go: http://www.delorean.com/store/p-1031...blemishes.aspx
I think it's awesome that you guys are making new windshields. I definitely like the idea of new 2011 glass and I'll certainly be in the market for one.
