As far as I know - just 2 - one with rain sensor or one without.

There is a 3rd option - a heated windscreen provided by the Trader Ricksta on here.


Rimmers have both screens in - as you see the one with a rain sensor is far more expensive.

Rick hasn't any available and no word of another batch. He had one spare after a cancelled order but it was grabbed!

I don't think the fitter could fit the wrong screen, or he would have done.

Being in the same neck of the woods, can you name such a helpful fitting company?
