OK..
I have just completed my first chop, and it worked out great..
My biggest concern was how to figure out where to chop it so that
front and rear edges of the window openings would line back up..
This is what I came up with..
I am sure there are other ways, but this worked for me, and I hope it
helps someone else out some day
First I took a short level (9" in this case) and marked the center of it..
Next slide it into the windshield opening and move it up and down until the upper bubble centers (please don't mind the cardboard simulation of a windshield opening..lol )
Now use a square on the side of the level and line it up with the mark you made at the center of the level and marl your post..
