The recent dry spell has been very timely and allowed a lot of driving time and the opportunity to fine tune suspension, steering and megasquirt. Currently I have the Saturn GRP body kit with aeroscreen. So now I am looking to fit a windscreen and full hood to make it south west country rain proof!
Has anyone on here fitted wet weather gear to the Haynes Roadster? I suppose wet weather gear/windscreen from other "kits" may be possible? The possibilities include GBS Zero, Caterham S3 or Classic, Westfield SE,Tiger Avon, MK Indy to name just a few. I'm not sure of the chassis widths on any of the above cars and how it compares to the Haynes Roadster. The alternative is to make it bespoke from scratch There is also the possibility of making a GRP hardtop.
Any advise/discussion on the above would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Don't think there is any 'off the shelf' wet weather gear that'll fit due to the high roll hoop. Windscreen frame shouldn't be that hard to make, and most windscreen companies should be able to cut you a flat screen to a cardboard template.
