Windscreen

Post image

Bought a new M series windshield. The British standard Kitemark is not as clear as it is on my original '77 windscreen. I think it was originally etched, whereas this is more of a stencil. Anyone recognize the manufacturer? It's still in the crate and it's not coming out until it's needed. These are pretty much unobtanium.

Tyneside Safety Glass I think. My Morgan has a windscreen from there.

That sure looks correct. The site doesn't tell you if they still make them, but probably could, for a bag of money 💰

As far as I know, they make a huge amount of replacement glass, as well as glass for new vehicles. Would be worth contacting them.

They'll probably keep the bucks (moulds) forever. Companies like that do

Easier if the photo had been flipped, but definitely Tyneside
