Question

Does anyone know how the anti-raindrop mirrors work on the MY03???

I'm intrigued more than anything else... I find Rain-X works a treat most of the time :-)

Typical crud resistant coatings are hydrophobic polymers, bit like teflon on a sauce pan. Can't say what Subaru use on windscreens exactly, but foul resistant surfaces are often of this type.
