Hi Guys' & Girls ( Sure there must be some around 
) Thanks for your advertising both Dayne and also to Micakas for the forwarding and obvious advertising of Motorsport Windscreens
I would classify as one of the " Older members " but my interest in all old fords from MK I and MK II Cortina's to the Capri and my favourite the Escort MK 1 .... Owned many when in the UK especially 5 MK I Lotus Cortinas and my most missed vehicle of all time, a RS 1600 with big winged shell in Black !
Thanks to the member for so many reads here .... I have relived my youth many times and also spent many hrs reminiscing 
Unfortunately I don't own a Ford at this time only an Evo I'm building to race in IP.
Ok with Motorsport Windscreens .... It's a small Sydney based business expanding monthly, importing both Fully Heated Windscreens for all types of racing, and also fine for any state with regards to road use, as the scrare compliant in all states ( EC1 43R ) Screens are available with many options of glass colour sun band etc.
I am also able to have screens specially made subject to minimum orders. Here is what is sent out to any interested parties inquiries as inquiries come in .... Prices will vary depending on model of vehicle and current stock ordered. This is basically dissected form what will be on the website in November. Should mods feel this advertising in in any breach of any forum rule kindly just remove. Sorry the illustration do not appear here ....
Thanks in advance for any further inquiries : I'm sure you will find me looming about on varoius threads Great Site .... Thanks

Product Description :
Escort MK I & MK II - ( 1969 - 1981 ) Available in Plain/Clear - Clear with Blue sun band - Green tint with Blue sun band
All screens will be supplied in green tinted glass, with a distinctive sun band at the top in Blue ....
Optional Plain - Clear Glass ( For restorations where original appearance is required or class regulation dictate ) with or without Blue sun band …. Is also available with prior notice. Only in orders with a minimum of Two ( 2 ) + This may incur a slight increase of approx $15 – 18 …. To promote sales, Motorsport Windscreens will absorb this charge.
These will need to be specially ordered. Most drivers like to put their own sponsors name over the sun band area blacking out this section anyway.
Although just plain un-tinted glass is available, it may create delays in manufacturing times also.
Due to current manufacturing constraints, I am usually required to purchases in batches of four ( 4 ) as manufacturing procedures dictate these conditions, however if small orders of less than four ( 4 ) are placed a small uplift of the price may be incurred.
All front screens are obviously laminated, and are manufactured with varying thicknesses to what was / is OEM. This is mandated to meet current ADR and World standards.
Screens have hundreds of Micro-Fine TungstenWires in the PVB layer being virtually invisible to the eye ! …. Running either horizontally or vertically in the screen, the exact number depending on model.
Although you can just see these, visibility is considered normal, as these are fitted to many current OEM late model vehicles.
Being Internationally E marked ( EC1 43R ) so legal for all Australian states ( Not that that matters for racing, however would be suitable for registered cars competing Tarmac Racing type events where many vehicles registration may be mandated ) …. I the case of Rally cars and Tarmac Rally events, I have checked with CAMS and the product meets all requirements.
I have engaged a respected company, internationally renowned for quality product and also trading for many years to manufacture these for me. ….They are contracted to a number of OEM too, plus many other manufactures vehicles for their bespoke heated screen supply.
Further .... I requested a number of things from the technical guru within the company to clarify data of the screens i.e. what actual size are the Micro-Fine Tungsten Wires in the PVB layer sandwiched between the two layers of glass - ( 17 - 22 microns depending on model of car I’m told )
Do they go right across the screens to the edges ? This varies and in some cases the element appears to be quite a distance from the lower sides due to A pillar design, as it is apparently not cost effective and also difficult to make a tapered element. …. When in use the heat soon covers this area rapidly, as it tries to dissipate. Just like a saucepan on the stove where the handle heats up quickly from constant heat.
Heat up / defrost time in seconds or minutes in adverse conditions ? Around 2 ½ minutes for full vision if covered in heavy frost / thin ice.
Amps required while in use ? Approx 8 amps ( On a vehicle size of say Lotus Elise / Exige size ) - 10.9 amps on an Evo 10
Is a Relay / Timer required etc ? …. In current road going OEM cars, these screens are obviously controlled by the factory ECU.
No but it is recommended to run through a relay, but the minimum would be a 20 amp fuse and an LED in front of the driver at least.
Correct installation instructions need to be followed ....
This of course will insure longevity of the heating elements avoiding premature failure. This is not so much the wiring in question, but the total sealing of the outside edge to stop water seeping in between the two layers, causing failure of the element voiding warrantee.
Tech spec’s
Data of element positioning etc, and the general specs can be found in the attachment below. Black lines indicate the main wire layout / design, which are placed up either side of the screen. Placement of the heating element connectors may vary depending on model but normally located in lower corners with two connecters each side ( as there are two separate elements, one each side ) …. In some models connectors are placed in the centre of each side, positioned approx half way up each windscreen A pillar. This is due to some screens having one separate heating element where is runs horizontally

A quote from the technical man, as it may be of some interest to some ….
Here’s an example of how the touring /racing car screens are made up. We try to keep the power density to around the 3.5-4.5W/dm2 because any lower and the performance is not so good and any higher and you risk getting a hazy view when in use. This is all dependent on the windscreen in question, size and shape affects it quite a bit. **** May vary slightly from model to model

Conditions of Purchase :
Please note : These condition apply to under normal circumstances if ordered and not currently held in stock at time of order.
If after placing a purchase order with Motorsport Heated Windscreens I am unable to honor supply of the screens within a the time frame quoted, due to any issues out of my control i.e. strikes or customs hold ups etc, and this genuinely creates a problem for you. I am happy to return your deposit or payment in full, but with respect if just a change of mind on your behalf happens, your deposit is non re-fundable .... Sorry
However I must stress that “ I'm given a manufacturing times and can only give my word on someone else’s. “
Once your preferred method of payment for the screen has been made ( I’d prefer an EFT if poss ) ….. Kindly advise when a deposit has been made by email, and which payment method has been used, including your reference N’o :
For any new design manufactured lead time approx 21- 30 days depending on order size - Plus shipping. ( Approx 14 – 16 days plus clearance etc )
Warranty :
At this stage I am able to provide a 180 day warranty on the heating elements. This being subject to following the correct installation instructions supplied with any screen purchase. These need to be followed to avoid diss-appointments or premature failure.
I shall also have back up screens held in-case replacements are required on all models sold.
Supply Quote :
Escort MK I & MK II - ( 1969 - 1981 ) Available in Plain/Clear - Clear with Blue sun band - Green tint with Blue sun band
Product :
As previously described - Full heating element front laminated windscreen, supplied in full Green tinted glass with a distinctive Blue sun band at the top being full width. ( Unless specially ordered )
Public liability insurance
Product liability insurance is covered through QBE, coverage being up to 5 million
Costings :
Supply of one ( 1 ) is for a single screen $545 as our dollar is strong. This will be plus any internal freight ?
This would be normal Motorsport Windscreens retail cost if they were carried in stock ( being imported sea freight ) on date of inquiry. Any fluctuation due to exchange rates would be absorbed until Dec when a review will be carried out of existing stock, including stock currently in transit.
Race Industry Supply Cost
Applicable with same discounted rate as multiple screen purchase
Multiple screen purchase only ?
Being involved ( Hopefully ) in a multi purchase combining in one order of two ( 2 ) as a minimum, as I will buy the extra two to make the min of six ( 6 ) required at any time .... I would like to offer you an introductory come promotional price, as it would pay for me to have screens in different cars early in the piece, especially at the type of events you compete in and the entrants / competitors it attracts ….
Applying a further discount to 5% bringing this to $517.75 ea
Sorry ? this is the absolute best I can do to help this time ….
If proceeding and require a Pro-forma invoice, please advise and I shall email one if need be. Please indicate in which name you would like the invoice made out to ?
Delivery
Can be managed in various ways as I box / crate the screens personally. Screens are boxed using GP 330 expanding foam supporting /covering the screen. This ensures a safe reliable way to pack avoiding disappointments.
Freight through Couriers Please or Saddliers transport if in SA or WA will be an additional $65 - $75 fully insured. VIC & QLD approx $45.
Alternatively I can pack, and you have a courier collect on your behalf.
Insurance is covered with the package when in transit but should the screen be broken a clear picture MUST be taken before removal of the screen.
Screens are packed in a manner to avoid false claims cannot be made J
Having said this, I’m also currently working on a two piece polystyrene cover, which will be placed inside a cardboard box, not diss-similar to how a bottle of wine can be sent through Australia Post, but on a larger scale, as packing with expansion foam is both time consuming and expensive !
Payment
If a model required is not held in stock or specially ordered in a deposit of $200 for each screen is required up front. This is simply a company condition not anything associated with any diss-trust.
Should a purchase is chosen kindly advise your preferred method of payment, as I can accept EFT, Cheque, alt but not preferred PayPal.
Further down the track, should you choose to go a multi order if not at this time, I may well be in a position to offer more suitable discounts. How ever this will depend on the stability of our dollar against the US dollar at time of purchase, but to be honest I can’t see things getting much better in the short term.
