There's a point where the tumblehome of the screens changed and according to John Worrall , Steve Simmonds and Allon Whites, the folding mechanism will not work due to the angle. Around 2008 I seem to recall. I tried for ages with my 2010 4/4 to find a solution and gave up. I fitted aero screens and just took off the screen from the body. I'd love to do something with the Roadster but the cast screen pillars are not quite as simple. I'm hoping a certain dealer may develop a solution one day! A bit more spaniel stroking is needed Mr S It could be worth a phonecall to VBE www.vbe-restorations.co.ukThey make beautiful fold-down screens with aeroscreens for '20s Bentleys. However I suggest you sit down before they tell you the price.  ps Labradors, I think, rather than spaniels.

An observation re aeroscreens. Have you noticed that with two up there is significant turbulence but with only one the driver experiences almost none?

once had aero screens on 70s 4/4 was hit in (fortunately) sunglassed face by large stone. bought some new sunglasses and reverted to full w/screen. thankful to have full eyesight. Yes good eye protection is a must just as on a motorcycle

I've not spoken to them, but a company called Wessex Workshops advertise regularly in The Automobile as maunfacturers of Hoodframes, Windscreen Frames and Folding Windscreens.

I vaguely remember the German dealer from Hamburg had some replacement brackets for new cars with the detachable roof (not easy up)
