just replaced both my "front windshields" with BWY windows. make sure to remove all old sealant and prep original surface. Also since there is a "bow" in each window you will struggle some to line up all 6 holes so suggest inserting finish nails into each hole to align and then using screw bolts from original or replace with stainless. Just install each screw nut initially only finger tight and then use a star shaped pattern and tighten the rest half turn at a time or so. This will give you good watertight install. Good luck and don't worry this is relatively easy. Have a helper available as job will go much easier. I used masking tape on all surfaces to aid in an easy clean-up. 99

Just curious now, but the front ports on my M are two different shades of tint.
The stbd side is more a purpleish color that the greenish port side and as the rest of the ports on the boat.
Can't really tell the difference from the outside looking in, just inside looking out.

Do yours show the same differences, or do I have two different lots of plastic from the factory?

No big deal at all, just wondering.

Egress,
What product did you use as a sealant/adheisive?
