    Windscreen plenum availability

    Where can one get a D2 windscreen to plenum cover?

    Mine is in a zillion pieces, I assume from a windscreen fitter as the current screen is pretty new..
    I have glued it together using Sikaflex and masking tape.
    I have asked at Davis Performance Landies and they are at least $350.

    Does anyone have a part number or experience in buying from UK?
    It sure is a dopey system and material for cars in hot climates.
    Regards Philip A

    mine was busted by the installer too and then claimed to have been already like that. was a wasted exercise trying to claim it back under insurance.

    part number - JAK000010PMA

    britcar has them for about $190 plus shipping (rfom the UK)
    LRA has them for $244 plus shipping (australian)

    Have a look at this link

    Have a look at this link. Part nr is JAK000010PMA. In this thread, it indicates that others have got it ok from the uk. It's a big, reasonably fragile part to move half way across the globe.

    http://www.aulro.com/afvb/discovery-...reen-trim.html. Mine is also broken, and the more you touch it the more it breaks!!! I will replace it when the windscreen needs replacing. The fibreglass option from MiamiBritish would seem to be more robust and is $199 (US) plus freight. Don't know about it's quality.

    x2

    déjà vu.

    Postage was pretty reasonable and I think when I bought mine it was $160 at Britcar (UK). BOR wanted $170 for a +9 year old sunbaked one (dreaming).

    Mines in 2 pieces - I think the sun just finished it off as it's been over a year since a new screen went in - has anyone repaired with fibreglass or any other plastic repair kits with any success?

    Seems like a lot of money for a replacement just to stop it buzzing at speed....

    not only to stop the buzzing. It also shields the ventilation intake for the heater so you dont get wet feet! Mine is all silasticed up too from previous 'screen installers I assume. It looks mighty untidy! HaHa if I had the readies I would buy a container load and make a killing! Well maybe not with my salesmen skills $ 192 from LR Direct it seems

    I just did a quick workout on the air freight by estimating 160x20x12 CM and it came to $100, so not viable to buy from UK because of the volume of the box.
