Ben Hefty Hollings Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 not shure if you can actualy get them but i want some fo the rear window louvres for my manta b hatch, anyone got some?
dynamytedan Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) got one fitted to mine ...im keeping it for now . but fyi the brand is auto plas and i think they are long gone now . ive not seen one for sale in years . the one ive got doesnt sit tight to the screen as you would expect , its raised a few inches so it accomodates for the rear wiper ,also im missing the support bar and had to make one . i think its more of a coupe thing to have anyway . you could try and fit another models one ....loose the rear wiper mind... http://www.ebay.co.u...=item19cc55864e its even got the size there 94cm x 105cm .... not sure what a manta is , but it might be close Edited January 3, 2012 by dynamytedan
Ben Hefty Hollings Posted January 4, 2012 Author Posted January 4, 2012 thanks for the help i will have to see about modifying one i no they are avalable for capris one of them may be near size for the hatch
plumster Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Only joking, I'm sure some of you think they are greeeeaaaaaaaat. 1
biffy1984 Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 I have an autoplas louvre for the hatch, same as Dan's sits higher off the window to accomodate the wiper. Not seen it for ages but from memory it was in good nick. I paid £60 for it so would like my money back. If you're interested I'll try and get a pic for you. Cheers Peter.
dynamytedan Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 thats what i payed for mine i think . i was considering getting it carbon wrapped as its faded a bit over the years . but its a hell of a shape to wrap surely a challenge to any car wrapper pro .
Ben Hefty Hollings Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 wow yeh im interested il pm you about it biffy
gt/e paul Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 hi,ben its paul who used to own your car,how you doing ? yeah i too would love one of those louvres for the rear window ,sound like you have had a result .. thats gonna look great on your car. i bought one years ago when i was about 18 for a morris marina i had that was in the days when you could go to a car accesory shop and they would stock all goodies like window louvres and body kits (not like now with just boring halfords) yes auto plas who made these is long gone im afraid ,their factory used to be local to me. hope all going well with the car ben best regards paul

Ben Hefty Hollings Posted January 15, 2012 Author Posted January 15, 2012 loveing the split opinions makes me want one more
biffy1984 Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Ben, here's a few pics of the louvre, it's in good nick, bit dusty but will clean up fine. Tiny mark of red oxide paint in the top right corner but you'll never see it. No fittings so either make up your own or double sided tape to the back screen (if you're lazy like me). Let me know if you're still interested. Cheers Peter.
