Re: Door Removal
Ask one of your Highway Patrol friends, it just must be on the car
it, I repeat again, it doesn't have to be up. Drive the coast route with
it down and see for yourself.

Re: Door Removal
Read it carefully Jeff.
It just says you must 'have' a windshield.
It also states that the way a stock one works is just fine, even if the
stock one folds down.
Very much like signal lights on a Bike. If the bike didn't come with
them, you don't have to add them, hand signals are legal.
It does 'not' state that you cannot use the windshield as it was
designed to be used, folded, it certainly implies otherwise.
The law here in Ontario Canada is the same. You 'have' to have a
windshield and a working wiper, that's it.

Re: Door Removal
Read it carefully Jeff.
It just says you must 'have' a windshield.
It also states that the way a stock one works is just fine, even if the
stock one folds down.
Very much like signal lights on a Bike. If the bike didn't come with
them, you don't have to add them, hand signals are legal.
It does 'not' state that you cannot use the windshield as it was
designed to be used, folded, it certainly implies otherwise.
The law here in Ontario Canada is the same. You 'have' to have a
windshield and a working wiper, that's it.

It has to be up. Personal experience prevails over speculation.
