sunstrip regarding wipers
i've just bought a sunstrip with lettering stuck on. which sticks to the outside of window. so my question is will wipers when it goes over strip and lettering over time make them come off? if so how have you got around it as i don't want to change size of wipers as you then also lose what it wipes off at the bottom of the blade.

It should be fine although when you fit it you shouldn't use the wipers for a day of so to allow the glue to bond to the screen. Have no problems with mine.

Ive got a 5inch deep sunstrip on my car, and have had for the last 3 years. there is no problem with my wipers peeling it off. as for the MOT, depends where u get it done, but most are pretty sound and just pass it anyway.
