Default Help Please! Looking for dimensions of Midwest Giles 202 Canopy

If there is anyone out there that happens to have a Midwest Giles 202 27% 1.20 size. Could you please be kind enough to measure your canopy and post your numbers. I have this kit, but didn't realize the canopy was missing when I picked it up. I'm sure there are canopies in production today that woudl work, but I want to make sure. The Great Planes Extra 330S 1.60 looks like it would work. It measures 17.5L x 7.75W x 4.5H.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I want to sincerely thank you for assisting me in removing my head that was apparently firmly lodged up my butt. LOL. Seriously though, thank you verymuch for the tip. That's exactly what I did. I was right though...the canopy from aGreat Planes 1.60 Extra 330S is a perfect match.

Thanks again for the help,

Ski

LOL,, sometimes it just takes another set of eyes or brain,,,

One time I was racking my brain couldn't figure out why my rear brakes on my dirt bike would give enough presure,, rebuilt the whole system twice just for my buddy to point out the foot lever was not adjusted right and bottming out before full throw,, dooh [:@]

Just in case you need it still. I was given an old Midwest Giles 202, the guy who gave it to me thought it was a Great Planes Giles. Can you tell me the CG for the Midwest Giles. Attached are some pics with the canopy dimensions. Unfortunatly some previous owner painted the cowl. Thanks,
