Paul perhaps you could share the screen supplier details when you get them.

The screens will come out fairly easily without damaging the paint, whilst I don't have a Fairbourne screen I replaced an aero screen. I just bought some Poyycarbonate from Ebay used the old screen as a template and a jigsaw to cut the shape and polished the edges with wet and dry sandpaper.

Rog When I fitted the Fairbourne screen getting the original screens & sealant out the paint was looking as if it would lift. The only sealant I could finfd that was compatible with Lexan was a fishtank selant/glue so I supect that the sealant is going to be harder to remove than original. Fairbourne would not recommend a sealant.

I reckon getting the screen out is likely to damage the paint around the dash top slot. I heard that Fairbourne have stopped doing the screen but their website does not work properly to check. To dismount the screens was a nightmare in my case… I got a really nice replacement from M3Wservice in france. Finally I managed it to bring them out of the slots but the painting was a bit damaged! Maybe you could ask M3W Service for new screens (the can offer different designs).
