First bit of frost since I put the heated screen in, got in the car to come home from night shift and pressed the button...…….on for about a minute, quick swipe with the wipers and clear as anything.....happy days!

Did you guys tuck the wires from the windscreen behind the dash? Undoing the bolt on the side of the dash (one under the grommet when you open the door) does it buy you enough room to hide the wires?

I didn't, because of having to route the wires under the glass/ over the metal frame and then try to tuck behind the dash.

I just fed it through the bulkhead(behind pollen filter/ ecu etc. Was a bit awkward on passenger side because there is no hole in bulkhead.

Is certainly useful at the moment.

I didn't unbolt any of the dash on the wiring installs I done, I simply fed the wiring down the pillars into the footwells in both corners
