Front screen interchangeable?

Post by brendon »

Does anyone know if scorpion windscreens fit no matter the model..

there's a Ge scorpion at the wreckers with good windscreen its a '79 (GE) my scorp is an 82 (GK) will the front screen fit.

I assume it would as if they changed the front screen they have to change the size of the rear screen which would be expensive as its curved...

cheers guys

'79 was GH? My GH is a '79 at any rate.
Pretty sure they're the same, they look the same anyway :P

I'm pretty sure they are different. The windscreen in a GJ-GL Scorp are a few degrees closer to vertical compared to a GE-GH.

Side glass and rear screen are definitely different between the early and the newer shape.

The rear windscreens are different from GE-H to GK-N the later ones are more upright and shorter.
