Help!!!!

Driving the 411 from Kent to my place in germany I got hit by a piece of god knows what thrown up by some lorry which cracked the screen to beyond repair status.
Does any one know where to get a new one incl the rubber seal?
All help much appreciated.
Thanks
Paul

BODA has sources for both the windscreen and seals. Contact details are at ...........org

Paul,
I am sure you could get them from Bristol Cars. However they prefer screens to be collected as there are insurance problems sending them through the post.
Good luck
Richard

I would also suggest contacting Bristol Cars.

Presumably your insurance will cover it? (I hope so, because they are expensive)

Thanks for the tips. All this happened last Thursday so I haven't even gotten around to speaking with the insurance people, and the moment I saw the crack I knew it was going to be expensive. I have written to BODA but as I'm not a member that may be an issue, probably have to join first.
The main problem will be getting it to Germany as I was not planning to drive the car back to the UK before summer.

Paul,
I suggest you try contacting Pilkington, they now promote the fact that they supply glass for classic cars and they may have representatives in Germany
