Erm......


I've no idea what size I made it not though , sorry.

A few things to consider when making a screen as I've thought about making screens for the roadster but glass does'nt travel well with couriers!
How tall are you while sat in your seat?
Have you allowed enough space early enough in your build around the scuttle to fit the wipper motor and demister assembly?
What angle do you need it to be at to get in with out hitting the frame every time?
It would seem that the screan is pretty much a custom part and some thing that will need making to your own design. The one thing I would say is if you intend to put side screens on,either fit a fine nylon mesh or polycarbonate screen behind you on the roll bar.It cuts down all the vertex effect that comes in from behind and makes for a more civalised drive.

Is there an IVA/test for builds of this nature in SA and if so what do the regs say about w/screen's.

[Ricky]

hi everyone thanks for all the info and what you all have said it makes sense . And im not to sure what the iva/road worthy test say about it i need to find out about it and does anyone know what is that black strip between the scuttle and the frame of the windscreen . Once again thanks everyone for the helpfull info

[Ricky]

this is a first for me so im not to sure as well on how you go about the regs for a iva/road worthy test so i need to go to them and get more info on it
