Talking Glass contact

Spoke to a screen maker today a guy called cris glover, he makes the cobra screens and his company is brass craft. He is only down the road from me and said if i drop in a template he is willing to quote on it but would need to know the numbers involved. Interesting bit was about the correct bs numbers for the iva. The only way you can do this is to cut down an existing piece of car glass making sure that you leave the numbers in the right place, he mentioned using renault flat glass from something i guess a commercial of some sort . Also said it would be a lot cheaper if he was not involved in the screen pillars. Thoughts ????????????

I was quoted £78 for a one off screen cut to shape by a one man band a few doors down from the old mans former unit. There was'nt any discount on having more than one done as you only get one haynes screen per blank due to the kite mark. I was told that the blanks would likly be from some like a early ford cargo, MAN, ERF truck.

just dont bother with it till after IVA, we had a new screen made for the Frazer Nash a couple of months back proper laminated glass cost about £20 since there was no need for markings

just another option
