I did reply on that thread, TBH a combination of the original lead not being replaced properly and the rubber being too tight is I think the problem rather than the glass, Graham will be able to offer more advice

Having communicated with the owner , it’s not one of the Pilkington screens from the Run that Paul Harvey did back in 2016 , there are some others out there that do not fit at all which looking at the pictures he sent me is most likely one of those made by Euroglass , even the repro ones from Pilkington may require a slight amount of grinding to fit , also you need the correct screen Rubbers not the ones supplied by some suppliers , also the screen in the picture is not correctly fitted you need to insert the mouldings prior to fitting the screen even for a trial !! 
Not an easy restoration is a Italia

I can confirm fitting screens to an Italia is not an easy task given all the variables
