This is from a previous thread on car insurance and chase vehicles-
I'd be interested in more info about this. What sort of material do you use for the "screen". They make some pretty sturdy hog fencing that (layered and offset) could provide a good (if heavy?) "screen". Wondering what people use.
Also, I have a removable aluminum roof rack (affixes with suction cups and belts that go through the inside of the car). I would imagine that a screen could be attached to that (or does anyone have alternative ways of attaching the hail screen?)
Are you only be interested in protecting the front/rear glass, or do you overhang the sides at all? How far out front do you go before you sacrifice your sky visibility? I imagine the answer depends on the slope of your vehicle's windshield.
Thanks for any info...

Where does one get info on hail shields for windshields?
Thanks
You basically imagineer them out of something to fit your vehicle unless you got a lot of money to give to a welder. :wink:[/b]
