Hello Reinhart,
That's why all BN1/2 windscreen assemblies were numbered, both the chrome foot
and the corresponding side post should have the same number because they were
very much hand fitted from new, and then numbered to keep them together.? They
can be made to fit, but sometimes not without quite a bit of fiddling.
The numbers were unique to the windscreens, and the numbers left and right were
different but somewhat similar, however they matched top and bottom.? My car
has its original windscreen, and is numbered C97 (top and bottom) on the left
and C87 (top and bottom) on the right.
Cheers,

Hello Patrick,
? and you even might not be able to exchange one complete windshield from one
100-4 to another too easy.

When I broke the windshield of my 100 just two days before a classic car rally
I asked a friend of mine who had another 100 at that time to borrow that
windshield assembly to me we found out that it wasn?t possible to put his
windshield to my car without greater adjustments.

Betreff: Re: [Healeys] 100 Windshield Assembly

Hello
?
Now being serious.
?
The difference between the 100 screen and that fitted to the roadster
six-cylinder cars is like chalk and cheese.
?
The only similarity between the two is they are both fitted to an
Austin-Healey. Not only is the glass a different shape, cut and curvature, but
the screen surrounds are completely different. All the production four cylinder
cars (except the 100S) have the same windscreen surround and glass and all the
production six-cylinder roadsters have the same (but different to the 100s)
windscreen and glass.
?
Fitting a six-cylinder screen to a four-cylinder car is a pain in the bum. I
know this from personal experience as the BN3/1 has one.
