Dont' know if they are close to you or not (Kannapolis), but they were on the Racing Optics website as the installers of Windshield Protectors:

I may just 'try' a 2 layer just to get something on there... if it turns out then yippee... if not, then

I just got done self-installing a Racing Optics 2 layer tear off on the 996-3. Thanks to Heath at Protint for the tips and help. ![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)
Also, thanks to Fire Breathing 930 Hoss BKS for his personal protint input.![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
The install was very straightforward. With a helper it took under 30 minutes. The edges needed to be trimmed just a tad, and the install kit was key with the proper tools.
Some of the edge area needs a little touching up, but overall a fantastic result. I'll clean it up after it cures. The view out is terrific.
