Pig Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I can get you a screen if you want one. They are about £100 + vat and you would have to collect from bishops stortford. Please note to anyone watching, i am not a trader, i do not make money out of this. Im just trying to help as my friend owns a windscreen company.

That sounds good, not sure where Bishops Stortford is though. Do you know if i require new rubbers when replacing the screen? Not sure if you have to cut the old rubber to replace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Insured with Elephant. Will travel. Nothing wrong with the windscreen i have, its just got a blue sun strip built into the glass and wont look good with the new body paint. The OEM front windscreens all have a sunstrip built into them, I believe; sometimes it's green and sometimes it's blue - I think the rest of the glass is also very slightly tinted in one of those colours, too.

Jon, are they the same spec as OEM, but without the built-in sunstrip? My screen is chipped and I want to get it replaced when I eventually get the car resprayed.
