I recently had mine done on my drive by National windscreens
Apparently I'm having a mid-life crisis....Lasted 30 years thus far.

if you have the original or a pattern any automotive glass firm should be able to cut you a laminated screen.

Ok I will try National Windscreens as Autoglass who done them for me in the past won't do it anymore due to some EU Directive?

where are you, try independent windscreen fitters or even domestic glass firms will have 6mm laminated glass to cut but it will not have an auto motive bs kite mark but have used it before on buggies.

The big firms must still cut glass for plant and agricultural machines so say it is off your grader or tractor not a road buggy.

Don't know if they still do them but Pilkington glass in Kent does/ did them, hopefully they still have my template if I ever need a replacement lol

When I was looking for a heated screen maufacturer last year I tried Pilkington but was told they had stopped doing the small stuff of any type.
