Hi,
Can anyone recommend where I could get a proper windscreen made up for my Chenowth sandrail?
Thank

If it's a full screen it has to be a laminated and kite marked screen which you can get cut to size by an agricultural glazing supplier or even give auto glass special vehicles a call.

Thanks Shaggy. Just looked at the Auto-glass site and they advertise that they do buggy screens

Yes they did mine a couple years back good job they did too.
Helps if you have a pattern for them to work with or a frame it can be fitted in to of bonded to depending on how it fits. Also don't forget your wiper motor and where and how it fits and works.
Your best to make a mockup out of 5mm Perspex as this will be roughly the thickness of the glass.

Thanks Shaggy. I emailed the them yesterday and they already came back offering to send a guy over to discuss my design.
Quoting about £180/square metre - Well impressed!

That's not bad for a bespoke service.... Some on here may know cheaper places though I don't think you will get the same service as these.
