Response to Will Z's note (below)
... The area behind the factory windshield doesn't seem to affort space to
permanently mount a brooklands screen and also keep the factory glass
in place...Has anybody out there done something similar??

Hello Will,
I have the spiffy Brooklands screens mounted between the proper windscreen and
the "small" 3-spoke Motolite steering wheel (standard equipment on the
Competition model).
For many years I frequently got my fingers caught between the screen and the
wheel, which was really annoying. It was a classical case of sacrificing
comfort for style.
At a flea market I was able to obtain a steering wheel identical to the
Motolite (without the name stamped on it) with a very slight "dish" to it.
As a result, I no longer get my digits pinched and the steering wheel does not
come towards me enough to cause claustrophobia (and I'm a big guy).
Love those flea markets!
