FWIW, a few years ago, I picked up a Triplex windscreen replacement
guide which suggests the 2000 range of screens were still available.
For the record, even more years ago, Triplex bought Tudor Safety Glass
at Queenborough on the Isle of Sheppey - and Tudor was part of the
Autoglass Windshields consortium. Don't know if this is still the
case. Tudor only made laminated screens (my preference anyway) and the
principal reference # for a 2000 screen is HT201.
A variety of suffixes may well still apply and would result in a
laminated screen as follows:
HT201/T80 Clear
HT201/T84 Clear with green top tint
HT201/T82 Clear with blue top tint
HT201/T90 Green
HT201/T91 Bronze
I think one of the reasons Triplex bought Tudor was that Tudor never
threw away windscreen tooling and had the capability of making
one-offs for specialist cars and 'classics' for which there was a
regular demand. It could well be worth a call or fax to find out if
these screens are still available to special order. AFAIK the tel is
01795 663311 and fax 01795 668059
Another possible source could be Tyneside Glass at Newcastle upon Tyne
who I know used to do 'specials.' Both manufacturers product fully
meet BSAU standards and are etched as such.
