Have looked at the archive and found just a couple of threads about full windscreens that fit the Indy.
Has anyone successfully put one on? if so which ones fit. Looks like Wide bodied Westfields & Caterhams fit as do the lolocost jobbies. Anyone got
any other suggestions?
Westfield screen kits are £325 
and can be found at http://www.westfield-sportscars.co.uk/parts/parts.asp?category=Electrical

I am just at this moment fitting my own windscreen - and I recon it will cost less than 100 quid.
Im estimating about 70 quid for a screen cut from flat glass, which autosheild windscreens can apparently do.... or you can get a screen cut from a
panda or land rover glass
At first, I tried to bend alu channel, ala book method. It just distorts. I went to a big b and q and bought 2 off 2 mtr lengths of mild steel
channel. You can get the curves by making cuts in the steel with a grinder, so that it can concertina around the curve. About 10 cuts each curve. You
can then weld the joints and grind em down, finishing with a flap wheel and emery.
I used a bit of mdf as a template for the screen.

I'm no good at making things like that so i want to buy an off the shelf item if there is one. I like the Westfield one as it's black and
has the mirrors neatly attached to the side BUT at £325 it's SOOOOOO expensive!

neither am I - but I give it a go!

Go for the Lolocost one, it does fit even though it is slightly too wide and for £80ish it saves loads of hassle. Fitting a screen does make driving a lot better, and come track days it unbolts in 10 mins if need be. I'm looking at making a "finishing" trim to bridge the slight gaps at the screen ends/scuttle.
problem with buying that is they stopped doing the glass cause they wanted a min order of 5,000 screens or something stupid, buy the frame which they will post and get glass cut to fit!
How about Robin Hood?
I beleive Robin Hood are Lolocost!!!!!
Makes you think eh!!
