These were originally made from acrylic, correct? I bought some acrylic with plans to make my own custom platform but I realized that acrylic is only rated to withstand 190-200 F or so. I've been reading about engine bay temps and, while there is a lot of variances, it seems one often used standard is 100 degrees over ambient temp. Given that it hits 100 degrees quite often here, my concern is the panel melting. Has anyone had issues who lives in a hot climate? I went ahead and ordered some Lexan which tolerates ~ 275, but I couldn't get it in the color I wanted.
