year and model would be helpful. A 71 sedan will be much lighter than a 78 wagon.

2.3 usually means 74+, but i'm not one to assume. more details would be more helpful.

How much did the lexan set you back if you don't mind me asking? I was thinking doing the same thing, and I wasn't sure if I could get the side glass done or not. They go up / down normally?

all i remember about the lexan was that it was a real llong time ago.  like 30yrs.  i had a girlfriend that didn't care what i did to my car and a pocket full of money and time.  I had the windows running in the stock guides etc but had the mechanisms for rolling them up and down removed,  they were raised and lowered by way of a nylon strap that was backed by velcro
