    Can you make a cardboard template?

    They aren't flat on the top or bottom. There is a slight curve upward on both.
    I also recommend making a template for them to use. Otherwise you might not end up with exactly what you are expecting.

    yup...
    slight arch across the top, radiused corners and i asked them to sand all edges as the rear window gl*** will ride up and down 5" ...
    Rear gl*** will be grey [astigmatizm ?], And the clear windshield installed in the frame = both for $143.00 American.
    fair enough.
