    Default Windscreen

    I have the acrilic windscreen which I am about to fit to my MK7 but I notice that the plastic at the aft end corners has bent slightly upwards by half inch does anyone know the best way of bending it back to confirm to the aerofoil shape? If you apply heat what would be the max temp to go to?
    I would also welcome any suggestions on the installation as I must say I am apprehensive as I have not worked with acrilic much!

    My understanding is the corners are bent up to facilitate wing folding. You need the clearance with the wing folded back.

    That's what I got from John McBean when I built my SS7.
