What is it that you're after exactly? A new rear heated screen, a second hand one, or a heated front one? :confused:

Looking for a heated front one, found one listed on www.heatedwindscreens.com hmmm... might give autoglass a call to see if they do a heated front screen

I loved mine on my old RS2000, snow, ice, steam, condensation all had no chance! Blowers are crap in my WRX.

I don't think anyone outside of the Ford (or ex Ford) group have heated front screens ?

As far as I know Ford own the rights so that is why you only see them on Ford, Volvo, Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.

Otherwise BMW and Mercedes would certainly have them fitted !

+1, that's what I thought too.

I don't think the Ford thing is true my MINI cooper S had a heated screen, it was a factory option.

A friend has an aftermarket heated screen fitted to his rx7, i've sent www.heatedwindscreens.com an email enquiring about a discount on a quantity of windscreens for a group buy...

Heated screens were not made for the blobeye, legacys have them heated at the bottom. Also Mercs do have heated screens as does the new vw passat.

Any news?

I see they have heated wiper park areas on the new impreza saloon.

Ford had the patent (or whatever it is?) but don't they only last so many years (10?) before anyone can jump on the ship, hence why they've started to appear on othe cars :thumb:

Was just wondering if that's why a windscreen company list a 'heated' option?
