Title: Windscreen - when did they stop doing bonded? Post by: HFStuart on June 11, 2014, 12:55:21 PM Does anyone know when they switched the screen on the Spider from bonded type to rubber sealed and how I might tell the difference on a bare screen?

Did not realise there were any UK unbonded versions on Spider, I thought it came in after they had finished? The difference will be in the p/n, but I had both next to each other and there is just a centimetre or so difference in the size, so I would measure them to make sure.

As far as I know the bonded windscreen, at least in coupes and HPEs is ca 1cm higher than the rubber seal mounted (68,5cm)

I can confirm they are different sizes and hence would not be able to fit the later one to a bonded screen. Peter Title: Re: Windscreen - when did they stop doing bonded? Post by: rossocorsa on June 11, 2014, 10:54:02 PM I thought the aperture was the same and the sealing method dictated the difference in screen size as the rubber seal is thicker ??
