It was my understanding form an article I read a while back that it is caused by improper glue being used. From what I remember glues like crazy glue and super glue will expand and contract with the changing temperature and create a fluctuating stress point on the glass eventually leading to the crack. The article was about windshields & mirrors in general and not DeLorean specific so I am not sure this is a DeLorean specific problem. seanM --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Steve Stankiewicz <protodelorean@...> wrote: > > Anybody know why our windshields crack if the mirror's > glued directly to them when so many other windshields > are fine?
