In the winter sunshine today, I removed the roof racks and fitted them to the new project (will have to update you all soon). I started to pick at the trim surrounding the screen and before long I'd had most of it off and the screen out intact!! I left the bottom piece of trim on and managed to get it off once the screen was out. Now it wasn't my intention to get the screen out but I forgot these aren't glued in like my old Laurel screen was. Anyway I was expecting to see some nasty rust underneath but wad pleasantly surprised! After I picked and scraped the old silicone off and removed the rubber seal it's very clean! Only a few wee spots but nothing major. Will need to track down a replacement seal (probably should've done that first) and have thought maybe I'll do the rear screen too and maybe paint the roof... where do I stop though? I like the ratty look but don't want it to waste away. The worst of the rust seems to be in the roof surface rust mind you.
My plan is to get the screen sorted soon so it's not off the road long but we'll see... I have another screen that I may use as my current one is pretty scratched up.
