I saw a car windshield cut to fit a different car on wheeler dealers.

Changing the subject, I was amused to see on TV last night some firemen
taking the roof off a crashed car with what looked like an bog standard
cordless sabre saw. Through the door pillars and straight across the
windscreen as well.


I assume they'd identified the car as diesel or battery-powered. The
pincer-type cutters were designed to cut into metal where a sabre or
other saw might cause sparks which could ignite any petrol around.
