The factory optional "aero windscreen" # 700896, had laminated automotive  
safety glass; I had a few replacements due to projectiles on race tracks.   
I sit low in the car, and also used helmets.
 
My car is early enough to have the factory fitting set screws, and it would 
 fit behind the regular windscreen.
This is a terrible idea in the rain, as the aeroscreen blocks the demister  
(it came with a rubber sealing strip across the bottom) and there is no 
hand  room to wipe between the two inner surfaces.
 
The aero windscreen improves the MPG and MPH a sizable amount, but do use a 
 helmet on road or track.

I also love the look of the brookland screens but  see they can be dangerous
too.  

my main question is how  they're mounted.  can the two windshields be easily
switched?  do  the mounts for the brooklands say attached while the stock
windshield is  on?  just wondering.
