Side screens

Does anyone know how good a fit a Caterham side screen would be to a Locost? I have built a Chris Gibbs standard book version and would really like side screens to make winter driving a bit more comfortable.
Or is there anything else out there to fit?

Thanks

John

The Caterham is a very small car, side screens are about 7-8" short of fitting a Locost based 7.
If you contact this seller eBay Item She will send you a template to make a set to size
I fitted Caterham Half doors to the MK, you can see the fillet I had to make.

I have a Westfield screen, screen supports, mirrors, fibreglass fillet and side screens fitted to my car. Had to fettle the screen supports but I was very happy with the result. Couple of pics in archive without the side screens fitted. You do want to check the angle of the screen relative to the side screens and distance along the scuttle. But not a huge task. Not the cheapest option though.





Why do it the easy way, when I can do things my way!
