TR2/3/3A Installing replica Brooklands Areoscreens on early TR3

[jfarris]

My 56 TR3 has the capture nuts in the cowl for the original Brooklands Aeroscreens. I am led to believe that the new replicas sold by Moss and VB will not bolt directly to my car using the original holes. If you have done this installation, how did you do it and, as always, a few pictures could substitute for many words.
Thanks in advance,

Peter Wigglesworth in the UK makes mounts that will allow the repro screens to bolt into the factory holes. They look good and dont require screwing sheet metal screws into the scuttle. You can find Peter via the TR Register web site.

I have a post 60K TR3A but during the resto I added the cage nuts for aeroscreens and used Peter W's mounts.

Does anyone have contact information for Peter Wigglesworth in the UK, I could not manage to extract anything from the TR Register website?
Thanks,
Jim
