There is a Dennis Ashby glare shield cover listed on ebay this week. Has anyone had any experience installing these things? How long of a project was it? Was windshield removal necessary. 

 This also comes with the optional lights. Any experiences with those would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks in advance for your welcomed experiences and comments.

Haven't heard anything bad about them.   You don't remove the windshield to install.  It does require trimming, and  once fitted, is simply held in place with doublestick tape.  Since it's not  permanently installed, it doesn't require a 337.  The lights will require  your friendly A&P to sign off for the install and 337.  Give  yourself the best part of a day to finish the glareshield.  Check out http://www.aircraftglareshield.com/   and you'll find a bunch of info about it.  Good luck with  it.

I put an Ashby glareshield in a Cherokee 150C while  installing a one-piece windshield.  It can be installed without removing  the windshield, but removal and reinstallation of the defroster outlets is far  more difficult with the windshield in place.  The machine screws that hold  the ducts in place penetrate the glare shield, and getting the holes in the  right place is more difficult with the windshield installed.  It works  fine, but I haven't ever been able to keep the optional eyebrow lights  permanently installed -- the adhesive fails in hot weather, and they fall down  in front of the instruments.  Plan on a day for the installation.

Doubtful that I have ever seen a web page with less useful information.  ???

I have installed an Ashby glareshield in my aircraft.  It works OK.



At the Cherokee Fly-in at Osage Beach this year, I saw a glareshield 

produced by Aircraft Door Seals, Inc. that was very well done, reasonably 

affordable, and incorporated an integral soft, safety eyebrow.

I'll try another browser for some reason, I had NO continue button.

Makes it hard to use.
