I think that the only source is Morgan, at a price! Even the manufacturer of the screen is unwilling to sell replacements retail. The screen for my 1600 Sport was £960 from memory and that was several years ago when the Sports were suffering a rash of unexplained screen cracks.
Don. That is a lot for a slab of glass....

You can get a new glass cut from a number of sources - Autoglass even have a division that specialises in this. Trouble is they will want your old screen as a template. ( www.autoglassspecials.co.uk) I'm on about my third or fourth screen now. Each time Autoglass dealt with my insurance compnay and got me a new screen off Morgan which they let me take away and fit myself.

( www.autoglassspecials.co.uk) Yes it's auto glass doing the job via Adrian flux insurance. So it will get sorted. Mot is not until August so no worries
