    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

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

    Pat at least they got your windscreen right. They kept sending Discovery windscreens for my Defender.

    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
