So I put the windshield hardware in place and sure enough it's nice and tight and won't slap the tree every speed bump.
I'm not wanting a windshield now, but I want to have the option in the future, but these tabs are ugly.
Score! I got this brand new set of windshield hardware for $30 deliveried from eBay.
I had a machinist friend remove the tabs.
I originally had to modify the windshield hardware to work with the lightbar so I'll have to figure out how much I took off the plates.
Another look at the difference between the original tabbed bracket and the tab-less version.
Tranfer the width to the new piece.
Remove this much.
Dremel time.
Use all the PPE for this job. Ear plugs, safety glasses, and gloves.
The newly modified stuff fits and the headlight is tight.
The "nuts" in the cross piece are a real pain. Making swapping these parts a challenge that would require three hands so Bierkan suggested JB Welding those in place. Good call. "Mix equal parts on a disposable surface."
