I saw parts of the episode and was interested in finding out who and how they flush mounted the windshield and backlite. Anyone here know what they did? Oversize glass? Can find info on doing GM and Ford on the net, but nothing on Mopar. Any thoughts?

There is no help for us Mopar guys. Flush glass is larger than the original to fill in the gap usually hidden by the stainless trim. It also has a thick edge to elevate it to the correct height.

I guess the manufacturers don't see any value in a Mopar or ebody market :(

The flush mounting is no big deal u just put a piece of round stock around the window opening and paint the glass around the edges with black glass primer as wide as u need and glue it in with windsheild urethane and put a flush mount molding from a late model ? U can buy the molding in rolls and put it around and super glue ur 90 degree areas and ur set !
