Default Windscreen mounting brackets?

Been looking at windscreens for the vert. I found the clear glass/plexiglass windscreen on amazon that I like because it shouldn't obstruct rear view at night. However, it doesn't come with the mounting brackets to attach it on the sides. It's says that you need the original mounting brackets from the factory screen (which I don't have). I have searched all over the web for the brackets with no luck. Anyone have a part number for those, or have an idea where to look?

The brackets come included with the wind deflector, not sure you can buy them as a separate part.

Honestly I don't even notice the screen is there when driving - it doesn't obstruct the view in any way, day or night.

Generally it's fine but it slightly blurs vehicle recognition of cars behind.........i.e. Our friends in blue are less obvious. :-)

Thanks for the replies. I am sure there will be varying opinions on the merits of each type of screen. My issue is acquiring the brackets. Hoping someone knows of an avenue to purchasing them.

Unfortunately the wind deflector is only available as a single, complete SKU. T2R6106 prior to K05243 and T2R11321 after
