Default Windscreen and IVA

In accordance with the book you can build your windscreen frame from alu channel. This channel is usual acute-angled. I think, this can be a problem by the IVA. Have anyone a better idee for a round channel?

You could always get your car through IVA first Geert then worry about installing your windscreen afterwards, don't have to worry about demister then (which is a bit silly anyway on an open top car).....

Better to have the W/S fitted during the build saves a lot dismantling and redoing how to fit the heater and other things, I do not know but this the route I am taking
