The son took the Moke to work this morning. Guess who forgot to secure the bonnet last night after doing some checks :evil: :evil: :evil:
So has anyone got ideas on sourcing a new screen? Are they available laminated?
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Windscreen O'Brien replaces them...not sure if they service canberra?

If you're insured with shannons you get 1 free windscreen per year under the policy :)

Thanks BIAM. Maybe it would be wise for me to hold a spare for the second Moke.

Any windscreen place can do them in laminated as they just cut them from flat sheet. Cost was about $140 (not including fitting)

i cracked mine the other day screwing the sunvisors in.

dad took it to the local glass place, they recut and laminated it for $40.

The edges wernt perfect but the seals cover it, and you'd never know it wasnt an A grade job that would have cost the $180 i got quoted.
