Default WTB: Windscreen Rubber + Windscreen?

Well I cracked my front windscreen the other day coming out of a driveway.

So if anyone has a windscreen from a wreck that's not broken, let me know.

I also need the rubber surround that goes around it as my one has a slight tear in it from when I removed my windshield tape.

Do you want a taller windscreen?

I laser cutted a couple of screens with "S2000" logo a while ago and still have a few spares. The screen is a lot higher than the standard screen. You basically have to open the OEM screen holder and replace the oem glass screen with my screen.

I've been quoted $350 inclusive of the rubber + postage from Sydney for a brand new one, but aftermarket glass is never as good as OEM.

Got a brand new window + rubber + installation for $320 for RACQ/V Auto Glass with a $68 discount as I'm a member.

Beats the hell out of Honda and its $784 quote + rubber + wait time + install.

Here's a handy tip.

When Mr RACQ/V guy comes around, and its a reasonably warmish day, go inside and grab 2 cans of coke, one for yourself, and one for him during the install.

My $320 bill got knocked down to replacement glass cost only @ $273.15.
