I have a friend with a serious engineering company who would let me use his facilities or build it for me.

Bit of thread drift here, in typical TM style.

Richard. I believe Borghi sources his folding windscreen system from Morgan Park but fits the Aero screens on a stainless band that does not involve drilling any new holes in the car. All it needs is longer screws on the studs for the tonneau cover.

Thanks very much Peter I like that idea and it looks more in keeping with the car than the Morgan Park one with alloy fittings.

Took a run up to Cambridge in glorious weather drive to meet Cain who very kindly showed around his workshop and made me a custom pair of bonnet stays as I have A/C and the stays needed a little tweak. Saw several "splitters" and am having one of those also. Cain and Mrs Cain swmbo are very nice people and even had Earl Grey tea on hand shades thanks Cain a true gent toff

Wow, I like the stainless band for the brooklands screens. Can anyone offer an opinion (I dare ask . . .) on having both brooklands screens and the windshield in place. Weird views of the road?? or all good??

Cheers,
Mark

I used to do that on my two previos cars. It works OK but you need to be carefull that the wing nuts or the areo screen mounts don't scratch the windscreen.

Peter does that set up work with the heated screen, it looks like it does? Do you have the contact details for Borghi?
