 Re: Heated Windscreens I'm in, well away from needing a screen but don't want to miss out on a heated variety. Top tint sounds good to me.

Would it be possible to ask how wide the tint band at the top is? Tint is definitely worth going for, but some of us taller drivers don't want to be looking through it all the time.
Great find Dino! Thanks Dan, I was thinking about 3-4", but open to suggestions?

Re: Heated Windscreens So far I've got these people down for a screen, can everyone else copy and paste the list and add their name to the botttom, so we can keep track. (Should anyone not want to continue, please pull your name off it!)
Thanks

Re: Heated Windscreens Standard Coupe Windscreen top tint is approx 100mm at the center and 160mm at the corners, which as you look at the car gives a straight line across the window.
[just ran outside with a rule]

WEST Cool, that sounds fine to me if everyone is agreed?

Re: Heated Windscreens I've heard that Andy Sutherland's turbo coupe has been in a bump with its new owner. I don't know how bad it is, but assuming that it might at least need a new screen I have sent him a message to look in here.

Re: Heated Windscreens Is it a dark tint, as I wouldn't want a gold one! Also why can't I see pictures on the forum? All I see is an empty box with red cross in top left?

Re: Heated Windscreens stevegriffiths wrote: Is it a dark tint, as I wouldn't want a gold one! Oh no definately not gold, it will be a fairly neutral colour like an oem screeen - no bling bits on here!! stevegriffiths wrote: Also why can't I see pictures on the forum? All I see is an empty box with red cross in top left? Dunno, does it apply to all the pics? If so it's probably a setting in your browser's options. (the pics aren't on the site, the message has a link to the pic, so it may be that the linking isn't allowed by your settings)

Re: Heated Windscreens I'd be tempted, but I bought my screen a little while ago and can't justify having two at the moment. If anyone needs a screen to repair their car then I will sell them mine and have one.
