I did a little bit of a search and found some stuff on aftermarket add-ons etc, but nothing about if other year OE windscreens are swappable onto earlier year FJ's. Will a newer year (i.e. taller) bolt onto my 84 fairing?

There are 2 manufacturers of wind screens for 1200's. I do not know if they make windscreens for the 1100's.

Wind screens will only swap between the 84' and 85' 1100's.

Here is a link to one brand.

Thanks for the info Fred. I did some more searching on the site and found this thread http://www.fjowners.com/index.php?topic=6401.0 which is exactly what I was looking for. I want an OE looking windshield instead of just adding on a deflector.
