Yes, I was aware that Lexan windscreens are illegal in this country, so I had not really considered it.
Regarding the fitment of the O'briens glass, I couldn't get the top frame piece to meet with the bottom piece. There was about a 1cm gap on both sides.
The problem was the top corners which were a little sharper than the original. I used my trusty dremel to 'smooth' them out and that did the trick!
A little detergent on the rubber gasket, and the frame slipped on and I was able to screw it together without too much trouble.
I can highly recommend O'briens Nth Parramatta. Bob was very helpful and provided a few tips on how to install the glass.
