MG TD TF 1500 - Moss Brooklands Racing Screen?

I got one for christmas. Installation is a bit vague. Screw heads fitting to the the mounting posts. Clearance of the frame to the cowl. I'm sure others have mounted these and I'd like to get some thoughts from you before I drill holes.

Some of these mount to brackets mounted on tho the dashboard. When not attached to the dash they attach to the windshield and act as wind wings.

I'm on the road but when I get home Monday I can send you pictures of the Moss ones I mounted on the TD. They look great. Cheers, JL

I believe you have a TF as I do. My screens have been in place for years. If you like, I can take a few photos for you. Email me if you want some photos.

Thanks for the link Mike. Seems the mounting posts on that car are pretty flat under the screw heads. What Moss sent does not accept a screw head very well. Picture attached. I don't want to file flats.
Tom, are your posts the same?

Peter, here is a shot of my post. They show a flatter area for the screw heads. And, yes, there is very little clearance in the center between screen and cowl. I scratched my paint last time I installed them!
