I have some but not 4 a reasonable price!
These things are almost impossible to find. I looked for about a year then found some new old stock windshields. Some have the tint across the top and others don't, I have a few. I paid 390.00 plus shipping a piece!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I live on the east coast and I think these are the only windshields in the usa and japan. haha. Make an offer

two door and four door are different. The 4 door windshield is a few inches taller and maybe a little wider, I tried already.
The plexiglass isn't really good for a street car in my opinion. 1. After repeated washing it scratches and looks ugly. 2. Driving at night becomes a chore because the light doesn't just go through the plexi, it reflects across the windshield and causes a glare! Dangerous.
But you can try.
Like I said. I think I might have the only ones out here.
Happy hunting.

Seems like there's a definite market for old rotary windshields. Some of these glass companies need to get on the ball and make some more. I know the people in this thread aren't the only ones looking.

OK, I just found a place that has new windshields for my RX-4 coupe. I will post their info after I buy my windshield, becuase they very well might have those Rx-2 ones you guys are wanting. I'm paranoid some lurker might call and get the last winshield before I do, that's why I'm not telling yet.

PLease dont forget to post after you order yours. I am getting ready to order one and if I can find it closer or cheaper that would be great. Best price I found so far is $285

yes, please keep us updated 
I need to change my windshield gasket so that water doesn't get into my interior but with the crack in my glass I know it will break apart when i remove it 
Where do you guys prefer to buy your gaskets for RX-2's by the way?

OK, I'm still going to post this info. But I was informed of a windshield in a yard in Idaho. I called them and they are supposedly going to remove it and if it doesn't break they are shipping it to me. So I am waiting for them to call and tell me what's up. After they call me, or this deal falls through, I will post the info.
