I need three windsrceens asap for TVR's in NZ, for a shipment leaving soon.
I've emailed a certain firm in Coventry that have taken over all Griff/Chim parts over two working days ago with no response.
Can someone help as to where I can get them from please.
Cheers

You could try Bell Hill - so a search on PH for the number.
He may even ship directly.

We're in Power Monday so will ask for you. We had a screen fitted by Autoglass and despite telling them it must be a TVR screen and them agreeing it was a pattern and too big. Had to get one from TMS in the end. David Gerald and Peninsular will probably be able to help you.

It amazes me how often this happens. I have recently made 3 different enquiries by e-mail to 3 different firms for various parts/services for my Cerbera. No reply from any of them. Do you think they ignore them, or simply never look at their e-mail? I guess most of them have spent good money on web sites, so it seems stupid to just ignore any enquiries they generate!

Im not so sure on that, I thought they were bespoke...


I've used this lot for wedge screens and they quoted me for oneon the chim no problem

they wanted about 350gbp last time i asked for a chim and i paid 250 for the wedge screens i've had, and thats fitted.. by comparison though a screen for the transit was only 80 fitted !!!

The griff/chimaera screens are bespoke to TVR made by triplex and are available from TVR
TVRcarparts can supply and export

I thought TVR windscreens - certainly Cerb ones anyway - were manufactured in Finland?
