I used the Australian stock(4 windscreens) of O'Brians glass defender screens after they tried four times to fit a disco seal with fender screen into my defender. Pat

Geez Pat, I need to replace mine too :p

One of the local O'Briens blokes stuffed the seal in the Patrol too.

back in the early/mid 80's when dad still had his SIII SWB, the local landrover agent used to find themselves regularly ordering in fresh stock for him

afaik, when he sold it, the only original glass was the fixed part in the drivers door, both alpine lights, the drivers side rear sliding glass (station wagon hardtop) and the rear door/sides..... everything had been replaced, including the fixed glass in the passenger door which was the victim of a poorly aimed shot at a dingo

bullet was outbound...... window was open but the dog was moving L->R, kept tracking it, pulled the trigger and smashed both panes of glass...... and deafened himself too!
