Anyone know the Elise windscreen dimensions?

As subject...

I'm looking to use one for my design but don't want to shell out nearly £300 just to be able to CAD it.

Call me a cheapskate if you like.

Which dimensions do you need, as a mate has an s1 elise.

Well basically I'll be trying to replicate the screen as a CAD model to design my chassis dimensions around. Therefore I'd like the top to bottom measurements, the width and ideally the "depth" i.e. how much bend it has. It's only really to make sure I've got the rough sizing correct as I'll get my hands on a real screen before I finalise the chassis dimensions.

Any measurements you can offer would be most welcome.

Kind of but I'd not really be able to make a CAD model from those drawings... they are a bit too vauge in that area. Thanks though, I'm sure they'll come in useful at some point.
