Apparently a caterham screen will fit, i almost bought a heated one for £35 including all fittings, but i never heard back from the bloke. Have a look at www.blatchat.com

We have fitted the Dark Mac1 version - a little too high for our liking so we shortened it by 2". Fits reasonably well... nice guys too! Very helpful and informative - it's nice when competing manufacturers can respect each others products for what they are... good or bad. Mac1 never said one derogatory remark against MK which was very civil!

I fitted a Lolocost/RH screen, it is about 40mm too wide, but does look OK. I ended up getting a new bit of glass and doing a cut and shut on the surround to get it just right. You can get glass cut for about £50 it's the frame that's the problem. Saw one at Stafford and was £130 which seemed like a lot of £££ for what it is.

Full Windscreen

Hello again. Thanks for all the posts so far. I am looking for a windscreen, not an areoscreen. Dont care about wipers/de-misters. I've spoken to Robin Hood, but they say their screen is too wide.

Any other thoughts?

Mark

If you're looking for a Windscreen then afterwards an SVA. IIRC you will need wipers and a form of demisting as a minimum requirement. That's why most go for Aeroscreens

Mac#1 fitted a customer car with screen and hood, if my memory isn't playing tricks, give them a ring on 0114 2619633.

u2u steve m,he sent a template to a company that made him a screen for his locost.

It looks a treat and was around the same money as the robin hood one delivered.
