Sorry Ed. I miss read the request. They Y you're looking for is the height from the botttom edge of the scuttle to the middle of the bolt hole. That would be 32mm.



X1 is still 47mm. from the forward edge of the scuttle indent to the middle of the first bolt.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hope that is what you're after.

These numbers seem to vary a lot from car ro car.



Thank you Sir

Ed...want to see variation? Check out the noses on the two Orange Superlights in the banner pic. Same vintage...one painted one unpainted...both CF...radically different shape.

Al, a few years ago I went over to England and went to the Stoneliegh kit car show which is well represented by the Lotus 7 club of GB. There were over 230 Caterhams in attendance and NO TWO are alike!!! From color, wheels, motors, dash layout, you name it. I could not find two alike.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And that was just the Caterham area.



Each Marque had its own separate area. Westies, Dax, Tiger,Robin Hoods, Locosts, and a few I've never heard of. And that was just the LSIS's.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cobras, Jag replicas, and tonnes of others. It's a great show if you ever get the chance to attend. Usually, the first weekend in May. Tom

Hello Tom



Yes I see that individuality is a good tohng in these cars and I applaud that, I was concerned about compatiblilty of both the brooklands and the conventional windsheild.

Thank you fo you help I will install that windsheild this weekend.
