Herewith the *definitive* Triumph laminated windshield list using what
we call HT numbers in the UK. This comes from one of my useful little
parts books that you hang on to on the basis that "one day they might
come in handy." Worth mentioning the company that produced the
originated the HT numbering system was later bought by Triplex, so
there should certainly be a (later) Triplex cross-ref #. The firm was
still very much in business less than a year ago.
Glasses for Triumph (Standard) Eights, Tens, Sportsmans, Vanguards,
Renowns, Roadsters and 'Flowers now discontinued. All except the
Sportsman and Vanguard used flat lam so no hassles there for those
needing screens. Side windows are not listed for any of the cars but
many toughened glass specialists will make a one-off for you providing
you give them the dimensions or a paper template. At least, Tyneside
Glass in the UK will do that, no trouble - NFI

Here goes:

HT752 Triumph Acclaim 1981-85

HT 91 Triumph Herald, Vitesse, Saloon, Conv, Est 1961-71

HT 90 TR2, TR3, TR3A (presumably 3B) 1952-62

HT135  Spitfire Mks 1,2,3, 1962 - 70
HT135 TR4/4A, TR5/250, TR6 1961 - 75
HT135 GT6 1 and 2/GT6+ 1966 - 70

HT369 Spitfire Mk 4 1970 - 81
HT369 GT6 Mk 3

HT532 TR7 1975 - 81

HT363 Stag 1970 - 77

HT253 1300/1500 front whl drv, Dolomite, Toledo 1965 - 80

HT201 2000, 2500, 2.5 Saloons and Estates 1963 - 77

The foregoing are the core numbers for clear laminated screens. Tinted
glasses can also be ordered and the following suffixes behind the main
HT number mean:

T80 Clear glass. All screens are assumed to be T80 unless otherwise
stated
T84 Clear with green top tint
T82 Clear with blue top tint
T90 Green
T92 Green with blue top tint
T94 Green with dark green top tint
T91 Bronze
T97 Bronze with dark bronze top tint
T93 Bronze with blue top tint
T95 Bronze with green top tint

A premium is charged for a clear glass with a top tint
A *substantial* premium is charged for tinted lower half with a darker
or different shade top tint.
