Aeroscreen locations

Yet another question!

Having just bought myself a couple of Brooklands-style aeroscreens over the weekend, I now have to work out where to fit them. I have 2 choices, as far as I can see.

a. Mount them to the front of the scuttle, near to the bonnet, so that they can fold down backwards.
b. Mount them close to the back of the scuttle, just in front of the dashboard, so that they can fold down forward.

Can anyone who's got these things let me know what they've done? A few pictures would also be good.

cheers,
David

Wot! No opinions!

I don't believe it...

David

P.S. Just found these old pictures and I'll probably put mine in a similar location (roughly option b as described above).

The Aero Screens should be in the same line as the windscreen would be.

But I've never had a windscreen!

I mounted my trial aeroscreen near the back of the scuttle, and it seemsto deflect most air , flies etc over my head, but only just as found by holding my hand in the air at speed i can tell where the slipstream is.I think if it was to far forward it would be deflected directly into my face instead, but obviously depends on size and angle of aeros.
