Make a set out of perspex, not as nice, but when the drivers side shatters whilst doing 70 on the motorway its like having a snowball thrown at you.
Plus it takes forever to get rid of the debris behind the seat.
When they get a bit scratched make another pair.

Thanks guys, I will probably try the perspex ones but when I spoke to Autobrass they were looking at getting glass ones with a plactic coat that stops the bits shattering like the toughend glass ones, have any of you heard of these, I suppose they must be like standard windscreens are now?

Not heard of them but sounds the best of both worlds, I used to have Perspex ones but they scratch so quickly and are than a pig to see through. I have glass ones now and think they are a lot better.
