Hi all

A while back there was a thread abour wind blockers, and I asked about wher=
e I could find a picture.=C2=A0 I never found anything on the LBCars site, =
(likely user error)

Anyway, I decided to try to build one for my BJ8, and I think it came out f=
airly well.=C2=A0 I used the drain hole brackets down in the body just behi=
nd the doors as sockets to put the 5/16 steel rods into.=C2=A0 I bent the r=
od to get the right angles to hold the bottom frame down against the tonnea=
u support frame and added a couple straps with snaps that could snap to the=
 snaps already on the tonneau to make sure it doesnt come loose.=C2=A0 The =
bottom frame is made of 2 pieces of 3/4 =C3=97 1 oak with a piece of oak co=
ve moulding attached to the bottom of the front one to fit over the tonneau=
 frame rail.=C2=A0 The "glass" is a piece of 1/8" lexan 9" x 38" sandwiched=
 between the 2 oak pieces.=C2=A0 I made mine 38 inches wide so it can be st=
owed on or under the parcel shelf whan not in use.
