Best of luck with the new car -- wish I could win the lotto!!!! Could you send me a pic of the outside of the screen upright I believe the factory have a new way of making the aeroscreens stay close in to the uprights at speed? I have been trying a few alternatives on my plus4 and while some work, they are a bit "Heath Robinson"!!!
Cheers!

They use a twin magnet (magnets attached to the side screen with stick on plate on windscreen pillar) system that works well on the drivers side but I have had to modify the passenger side to stop the sidecreen popping out above 70mph.

Yes I did mean the sidescreens -- the best solution I have tried is 3M button bits - like interlocking velcro. These hold well up to about 70mph - I also tried Velcro straps and these work well but are fiddly. What do the magnets look like??

they are approx 10mm diameter button magnets and attach to a plate approx 15mm x 30mm. Sidescreens remain rock solid well above 100mph (witnessed on a test track of course!)
They also look really neat

I havent yet investigated but this place might have whats required:

You need to keep your pacemaker and spectacles away from these babies...
And make sure your fillings are of the right material too. And your watch. Otherwise it sounds like a great solution. I prefer the windows in the Aero (but not the ones that break when you close them).
Oh, and any piercings too.
