Default Windscreen - installation Q

Got the windscreen the forum recommends. Popped it in - I'm wondering if there's more to it? Specifically, what are the two threaded holes for that point to the back seat (see pix)? There were no instructions nor were there any extra pieces. It looks like one would screw some sort of cylinder in there and they would assist in positioning (maybe by sticking into the seatbelt slot?). Thoughts? MKMc

You are correct there should have been 2 pins shipped with the unit and yes they go in the seat belt holes.

Jagtoes - thank you for the feedback - now I need to figure out where I bought it from and see if they will send me the pins. Are there holes or something they fit into in the seatblet slot or do they just rest there?

If you're handy, you may be able to make suitable pins from rigid plastic tubing that will snugly press fit over the threaded ends. Or, if you're more handy, you can use aluminum tubing and cut a matching thread in one end and use a small rubber cap on the other end that fits into the seatbelt slot.

The pins simply rest in the seatbelt slot.

Stuart S - thank you. I was thinking along the same lines. Maybe a bolt screwed in to the hole, then a plastic or rubber tube over it...
