This is not the sort of answer you are looking for I know but.....
If vehicles are approaching at an excessive speed play chicken with them till they slow down (unless it's a road train). Sit in the middle of the road and the other driver hits the brakes - then move over. It's the only way with a lot of twits out there !

Kiwi Kia, that would have to be the stupidest advice I have ever read.
I just twigged, You were looking for a bite.
Well, you got one.
No one could seriously offer a fellow traveller advice which involves playing chicken with other drivers.
You idiot. Still....Kiwi Kia says it all.

Unless you've got radar installed how do you tell the speed of the approaching vehicle?
The poster asked for advice on fitting a windscreen saver not stupid comments. I'm sorry I can't help with that request but can only say to slow down and move as far to the left as is safe as it may help in the future not only in saving your windscreen but avoiding some of the hopeless rude drivers out there.

So is it another solution, or how to fit the mesh protector that you are chasing?
Sometimes the old trick of plcing the fingers on the inside of the screen near the mirror still works to reduce the shock load on the glass.
Wasn't too sure with laminated screens.
