Westies are wider than a normal Caterham, so I would guess they don't, not sure how they compare to an SV or CSR though.

Possibly if you're prepared to be creative. I took a template of a friends Caterham JPE style screen for my narrow Westie and had to take about an inch out of it to fit my narrow bodied westie and I know the westie aeroscreen has been made to fit narrow cars. But I think it involves quite a bit of persuasion with heat guns and the like, especially to bend the perspex lip to fit.

As for protection the westie screen I've got on my new car is definately more effective than Caterham copy I had on the previous. Not by a large enough amount though to go to the hassle of fitting one to a Caterham though (plus I think it'd look wrong. It looks fine on the plastic bathtub, not so sure it'd work on an ali Cat).

I don't think it'll fit, no.

Try a Richard in France aeroscreen. They offer more protection and are made specifically for the Caterham.
