Windscreen size

Postby chrisP » Tue 07.04.2015, 18:12

Would some one be able to tell me the maximum size (top to bottom and left to right) of the windscreen. I need to work out whether I can fit a replacement in the boot of my daily driver, but the Elan in 40 miles away at the moment.

Cheers in advance

Hi Chris,

Just been out to the car with a tape measure, so allow a bit for me measuring by eye...

The windscreen should just fit into a space 3ft x 5ft x 8" (90cm x 153 x 20), but that will be an absolute minimum without any packing or wiggle room

Good luck :D

trust me - laid inside face down so the sides are touching the 'ground' the front bottom center is way higher than 8" off the deck.
I had one in the back of my Jeep for a few months while I found a safe haven for it.
