Title: Dax Windscreen
Post by: John Barnes on Dec 19, 2024, 12:44 PM
Seasons Greetings to you all ! As its now the time of year to do some fettling one of the pressing jobs I have is I need to fit a new windscreen its a 93 build DAX 427, I have looked on JK sportscars website and they don't show anything for a replacement, can anyone advise ? I'm assuming all cars probably have slight differences so before I start to dismantle things thought I would ask here first.

TIA

Just the glass you're looking to replace? All screens are the same, try eBay for the glass

Yeah just the glass assuming its straight forward to get the screen out of the frame

Yep, all the same. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185799564533?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=J_H3xP6XQW2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=91co7LGwQZ-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
I think you'll get them cheaper than this though....

Two thoughts:
1. It's worth calling Cris at Brasscraft (Link (http://www.brasscraft.co.uk/)) he was very helpful when I replaced my screen
2. Be careful with the glass you get - I never knew they come in different thicknesses (guess how I found that out....).  Cris was able to provide the correct thickness rubber surround so my glass now fits my screen frame properly
