Keep your eye out on eBay - look for a Caterham s3 windscreen as these fit fine.
If you need a pair of stanchions then give me a shout.

You'll also need a pair of Westfield doors (the longer ones) which are about right or else your right ear will take such a hammering from the buffeting it's not funny !

I have just removed a chrome windscreen with side pillars, side mirrors and centre mirrorfrom my Westfield SEiW if thats of interest?

I'm based in Bristol. Would rather not post as I've had issues with glass before.

Let me know.

Can you tell me the width of the windscreen at its widest point so I can work out if it will fit the scuttle of my mk indy. Also what price did you have in mind.

I'll get to it and let you know. As you may or may not know its not a rectangular screen its slightly trapezoid in shape but I'll take some measurements and maybe upload a diagram. Will you want the side pillars/mirror/mountings as well seeing as it all fits together?

Have just measured the scuttle on my Indy and unfortunately your screen is too wide. Its about 40mm too wide which would be tricky to hide. Thanks for your replies anyway

Have had another think about this and reckon by mounting the windscreen further back on the scuttle I can absorb the extra width without it looking 'wrong'. Could you give me a price for just the windscreen and let me know where in Bristol you are based. My brother in law works in Bristol so I'd get him to pick it up. Also could you tell me a bit more about the condition, maybe post photos of any damage. Thanks

I've provisionally sold the whole kit to another locust member. Sorry.
