I use the transparant packaging plastic from the Bachmann packaging.
I spot glue it to the body with super glue.

Any packing plastic will do-I used leftover clear stripping mylar from my old print shop days-just don't use "super glue" type products-they tend to fog the plastic.  I used good old Elmer's woodworking glue on all the windows of my Deerfield River Laser cars, and none have come loose after several years of use.  Just use a toothpick and dab a few dots of glue, and give it a chance to dry.  If you don't man handle the cars, the windows will stay.  I've know folks to even use the clear plastic from window envelopes with great success.  What ever you have on hand and whatever works for you.  Good luck.  John Tumolo    [email protected]
