tornado 2 Posted January 17, 2017 Can u fit a s2 windscreen in a s1 mk2 with a s2 windscreen rubber, i do remember years ago having trouble with them i no people say when selling the windscreen rubbers they say it fits all models is this true as my s1 wind screen is not the same size as a s2.

the-ford-cortina.com 226 Posted January 17, 2017 a better question is hes anyone here bought a new windscreen seal for a series 1 car that has fit properly and if you did where did you buy it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
63Conrad 3 Posted January 17, 2017 Can anyone please confirm the dimensions for a S1 + S2 screen ( just the 2 x heights ) as I have prob got half a dozen Mk2 screens that I could do with selling so would be good if I have the correct info to pass on, :thumbup: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the-ford-cortina.com 226 Posted January 20, 2017 The Series 1 is 574mm so 6mm difference might well be able to get a series2 screen in my series 1 car then :headscratch: I have a blue top tint one that I am hoping to get into the Crayford Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLI 8 Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Beware some of the new repro Chinese mk2 windscreens about, they are too big (I just about managed to manhandle one in on my 1969 mk2 using the East Kent rubber, but it took 3 of us and several hours of brute force, swearing, sweat and tears...) One of our Norwegian Cortina Club members gave up, and went to his local glass guy, think they cut off 5-10mm... There used to be 2 different rubbers (s1 and s2) years ago, but I believe you can only get the s2 rubber these days.

I have one in my S2 & although a bit tight, it went in. I know they've had some bad press round these parts & I only got one because you couldn't get one anywhere else at the time. They are good quality as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tornado 2 Posted January 20, 2017 I get one and try both screens and let people no what fits best Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
