Hi ....

Recomendations fitting / installation etc ....

I must stress that I'm advised correct installation is very important.

It is advised to put at least one if not more layers of a decent sealer, i.e. a coat of your best nail varnish would be good ~ wink.gif .... Ok the wifes then.

Completely cover the edges of the glass and don't just depend on the windscreen sealer doing it's job used by the installer ( As there can be times when no visable leaks will be seen inside the cabin, as the water may just be sitting in there hidden from veiw and gradually seeping between the two layers of glass ) Premature failure with water seeping / getting between the two layers of glass is common if not sealed correctly, causing a failure of the elements.

This type of failure is NOT covered by any warrantee issued with the screens ( six months on the element from date of supply )

An inline fuse of 20 amp must also be used in conjunction with say a LED indicator/switch visable by the driver.

Any questions please call me on 0422 425 026

Again Thanks to all for your patience and trust.

Again ....

One other thing which may interest.

I shall have available " Tear Offs " simular to the V8 Taxis etc.

There will be very little loss of vision / clarity, but will prolong the life of the screen, and stop the sand blasting effect experienced with long term use or long distance races.

Obviously this will not stop rocks, but will assist in the overall longevity of the screens life ....

Cheers .... Del

Ahhhhh! That's good! I'll be needing those too.

I'm extremely unlucky with the amount of screen damage I get. Porsche drivers seem unable to hear lowly R32 horns or see the high beams?

Hi Again ....

I have an account with DHL and was quoted to send it to Dunedin by the cheapest most economical service available ( 4 - 5 days, door to door ) they have quoted $264 AU freight inc insurance.

Screen cost with no GST charge, as it's leaving the country .... $535

To send sea freight would be cheaper buy incure the wrath of all sorts of other mandated charges when going consolodated cargo.

If there is any way you know or any one who ships to NZ from here who may somehow help out I can deliver to any freight forwarding agent in Sydney for $0 if it helps ?

Cheers mate, will have to check how much the customs goons would sting me with once it gets here. Not sure if I'm keen yet but if I end up needing/wanting one I'll PM you.

Hi ....

any more for r32's?

mine just decided to explode after tipping over

farken!

I am shocked and confussed to hear ? Screens are somewhat fragile though .... How the hell did you do that ?

I have two left Peter ....

Cheers .... Del

Hey ....

now i have to give up drinking for 3 weeks to pay for a new one

hook me up del

You are making things easy to sell these Pete :thumbsup:

So that is $11.43 per day over three weeks !

Sorry to say but if you need a replacement ? you may have to give up drinking for 3 weeks 3.84 days. As replacment costs are $40 more expensive :down:

Either way let me know as I may have sold one of the last two today

Cheers ...

be honest. $500 is like 2 days drinking not 3 weeks. monkey. and yeah I wondered who was yelling C$%NT!! last night.

Hey ....

Duncans screen has now been fitted. No problems it fitted okay and sealed up alright

That's good to hear Brad. The S15 one I sold was a very neat fit also ( And so it should be ! )

Have a few running already .... Andrew Mc'phersons Lotus Exige is using one and already, used it at the Wakefeild 300.

Having a batch made made for his Mosler too.

For what it's worth the Lotus Exige drew 8.8 amps.

Got a few in the NA Motorsport Evo 9 & V Sport Evo 10's at Super Lap ( If any one wants to check them out ) looks like they won't need to use them after driving 2500 klm's to deliver to NA Motorsport :down: .... And Ben's too of course :thumbsup:

All others will be out next week inc Ben in Tassie.

Cheers .... Del

    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
