Please list any interest.


I can get hold of heated front winscreens which are properly tinted and supplied with relays and switches for all classic shape Imprezas. No firm prices as yet but rough guide around the £270 - £300 mark.

Please list interest.

If you can't afford a garage you should not be owning an Impreza..

Thats great news was thinking this might also be a fabulous thing for people with broken windscreens that would be wanting to replace them on the insurance.

Thumbs up

Sounds a great deal !
Just a quick point to consider - IIRC radar detectors and heated windscreens don't always work - may be worth checking out if you are thinking of using one/either/both

RADAR DETECTORS DON'T WORK PROPERLY WITH HEATED FRONT SCREENS...

Just as a warning, this is true not a joke, the thin elements across the window affect the detectors ability to pick up beams from radar devices.

Cool

I know of atleast 3 people over here who would be interested but not feasable as shipping will be 2 expensive.

Nice idea though.
