 Re: Heated Windscreens
As to switches I guess anything that matches your existing layout.
Just bear in mind that the screens pull about 20-25Amps, as West says use a relay!

 Re: Heated Windscreens
Hi,
New to the Forum but have owned or run GTMs (of and on) for over 20 years.
I would definitely be interested in a heated screen.

 Re: Heated Windscreens
Hi Dino, Put me down for a screen as well. I will need to change the one in my 1967 Cox sometime. (Yes I know that the Mk2 screen is a bit smaller and I will need to adjust the opening). Regards, Doug.

 Re: Heated Windscreens
PM sent. You may find you already have the 'mk2' style opening, it's only the very early ones that are different.
