Question DIY Windstop? Need help, please.

I'd like to try making my own windstop out of plexiglass. Would anyone be kind enough to trace theirs on paper, and mail it to me? Thickness of OEM material would also be helpful. I'll gladly pay for postage.

Also, I'd like pics of the attachment clips that hold it on the rollbar, if possible. My 2000 Box has the receiving ends already installed.

A fun Winter project. I'll let everyone know how it turns out with posted pics.

Thanks!

photo attached - sorry if fuzzy. Toolpants says you can buy the clips (one of mine broke). The clip is a model of intricacy - would be much easier to buy than make...

Thanks, Limoncello.

You're right! Looks overly complicated. Maybe I'll come up with a better, more secure attachment. Slide into channels on rollbar, perhaps.

Now all I need is the outline, and I'll be off and running! Well, not until Spring, that is..
