ABSTRACT:
A snowmobile windshield comprises a moulded sheet of transparent polycarbonate material having a series of mounting tabs spaced along its lower edge. The mounting tabs are of resilient form, being integral with the windshield and generally flat, but having laterally extending parts which can be compressed together to allow the tab to pass into engagement with a narrow mounting slot in the cab of the snowmobile. The windshield can be installed without requiring access to the underside of the snowmobile cab, and in accident conditions can yield by releasing the tabs from their mounting slots, thereby reducing the likelihood of facial injuries to the snowmobile driver.
