Spec-Perfect A H Aero Screen Returns for 100M & 100S Owners

Austin Healey 100S with A H aero screen on a country road

Is Your Healey Missing the Final Piece?

The Donald Healey Motor Company listed the A H Aero Screen as an optional part for the Austin Healey 100M, while the Austin Healey Sprite MK1 Frogeye was also offered with an A H Aero Screen as a factory option. This reproduction is also suitable for the 100S. Modern Brooklands-type alternatives use a different pattern, typically without the raised A H lettering, Healey-specific glass profile and mounting details reproduced here.

A H Aero Screen at a Glance

What makes this screen different?
It was tooled from a surviving Donald Healey Motor Company screen, reproducing the raised A H lettering, aluminium frame, glass profile and mounting details.
Which Austin Healeys is it for?
The A H Aero Screen is suitable for Austin Healey 100M and 100S models, as well as the Austin Healey Sprite MK1 Frogeye. For 100M and 100S applications, the mounting arrangement follows the BN1-BN2 scuttle.
Why is there a spacer on one foot?
The spacer follows the curve of the scuttle and helps the aero screen sit level when fitted.
What type of glass is used?
The screen uses laminated glass shaped to the correct 1950s competition profile.
How is it supplied?
Each aero screen is supplied individually with its pivots, scuttle brackets and fitting hardware. Order one for the driver or two for a matching pair.

The Screen That Defined Factory Spec

An original surviving aero screen was used as the basis for the tooling, reproducing its profile and key mounting details. For 100M and 100S applications, the mounting arrangement follows the BN1-BN2 scuttle, bringing back the precise silhouette seen in period photographs of 100M rally cars and 100S works machines

The same A H Aero Screen is also suitable for the Sprite MK1 Frogeye, where an aero screen of this type was offered as a factory option.

Period-Correct Details, Captured in Metal and Glass

  • Raised A H lettering cast into the aluminium frame, with no stickers or etchings
  • Direct copy aluminium frame polished to match period brightwork
  • Knurled pivots & knobs for fingertip rake adjustment, with no spanners required track-side
  • Original-style slot-head screws, chrome-plated for long-term corrosion resistance
  • Spacer on one foot follows the BN1-BN2 scuttle curve on 100M and 100S applications to help keep the screen level
  • Laminated glass shaped to the 1950s profile for a period cockpit feel
  • Sprite MK1 application reflects the period factory-option aero screen offered for the Frogeye
  • Sold individually, so you can fit a single driver-side screen or order a pair for symmetry

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it road-legal in the UK?
The laminated glass meets IVA safety-glazing rules (UNECE R43 Type I)source.
Why is it sold individually?
Period racers often ran a single driver-side aero. Order two if you prefer a balanced pair.
Will it fit a scuttle already drilled for Brooklands mounts?
Yes. The spacer foot compensates for curvature, and unused holes can be back-filled with period screws (available on request).
