Budget Lotus Evora Pt 8 – Bye Bye Windshield

1. I never cut a window out of a lotus but when I work at they have what they call a hot knife what it is it operates off air and works like a jigsaw

2. Im an autoglass installer and if you ever need advice you can reach out to me. Ive done windshields on almost every kind of car including lotus and even though its all similar they arent all created equally. I would definitely not recommend using hand wire to fully remove any window as it is one of the more difficult ways to get a windshield out, even if its smashed like that. I realize its an older video but this is an awesome project and Im sure youve removed lots of glass since then and will in the future! If you need tools or tips please let me know!!!!! Its really easy for an inexperienced installer to do a hack job or someone that has no experience at all can make an install unsafe for the driver or more difficult for the next installer. Awesome channel!!

3. I wonder if a heat gun would have helped to release the roof from the adhesive

4. I'm commenting 2 1/2 years after the video was posted, and IDGAF!

   I've done fiberglass work on my boat. Before I got started, it seemed daunting. After getting a little experience, it was pretty easy. It was much easier than learning how to weld, IMO.

5. Very late. But that must be a D or G string max… Right?!

6. Subscribed. Learning more with each vid you upload. Thank you.

7. Anybody else notice the mannequin in the background on the bench?

8. Turn it into a go-kart, because…. fiberglass.

9. How do you not have around a million subscribers? This is so professionally done! Mad props

10. 5:58 Dumbass… 🙂 But it's the kind of thing you gotta try at least once in life, right?
    I guess I'm too late to point out you could have taped up the glass from the inside, ya know, to keep things tidy… 😛
    Love the series, binge watching the lot of it!

11. dude you have the most views per sub ratio i have ever seen!! nice job!!!

12. Piano wire, we always used piano wire to cut out windshields and body panels.

13. Excelent work!

14. My new favorite channel.

15. if you want to get the sealant of easier next time in simular situation. try using a heatgun to soften the sealant. 🙂

16. "The Lotus Evora is a great little car the design is innovative and the power weight to ratio is really good if you improve the cooling and put a nice sized turbo that will accentuate the power, but putting a better transaxle preferably,a MR2 manual gearbox 6 speed would do the trick, just rebuild it and upgrade some of the inner parts for reliable synchronization and shifting power,to take the stress of the increased power. A Great little car"

17. Bro….. Fishing line

18. You kicking out the windshield made my day that was hilarious

19. Thanks now I have to stay up till 2 catching up X_X

20. Best fiberglass shops are boat shops. Car shops just copy what boat builders and repairers have been doing since the 60's. BUT some of those guys are slow

21. I think it's worth mentioning that the windshield is an important structural safety component. The passenger airbag deflects off the windshield to work properly and it is a main structural support for the roof in the event of a rollover. Don't skimp on the windshield installation, have a professional do it.

22. Loving this series and channel

23. bondo

24. Swag 😀 https://i.gyazo.com/0b42fce5b8c818dab8841b18d2503b08.png

25. I'm not sure it would be best, but you could use carbon fibre matting to repair the shell, it's stronger, so you might be able to use less and have a strong repair?

26. At 4:35 there is a decapitated head looking at me.

27. So why don't you heat the wire before you start to cut ? and re heat as it gets cool?

28. here since 3000 subs 😀

29. Been subscribed since 2k love your videos man keep up the great work.

30. Get a wire bone saw. you can thank me later. 😉

31. Do it yourself. It doesn't matter of there are boring videos

32. Where do you get your noncopywriten music? Some of it sounds like NCS but is it all from NCS?

33. Fiberglass isn't too bad but wear gloves at all times

34. Do you have a schedule for when the build will be finished ?

35. This is my first introduction to your videos and I'm pretty excited. I await the conclusion of this bad ass junker:}

36. try a custom boat place

37. You can't kick it out when it's glued but if you have a older car with a gasket you can.

38. I would like to see some fiberglass work

39. Check out motionautotv for fibreglass work he's good with it

40. how much does he pay for these kinda cars???

41. Great series man!

42. Rip windshield wiper

43. Very good video

44. i just love this guy 😀
    ps : no homo

45. Dude, of all the things you've taught yourself, and the body work skills you've already learned, fiberglass repair should be a walk in the park! Try it yourself first!

46. As stupid as they are you guys should do a ruckus build because that would be the funniest thing ever.
