If there's definitely no blue tint available, I'll need crossing off the list please..  :sad1:

Good luck all you green-tinters!  Hope it works out!

Hey guys, sorry that no blue tint is available :( But for those still interested in Green... Sign up! Need some more definites with your location then I can look at central location to try and get fitting. The windscreen supplier is in the midlands (Tamworth) so if people were happy I could look around the midlands (maybe in the middle of everyone unless some are from the far reaches of the country?)

I just want to get together a couple of quotes for fitting so we can get this rolling.

Would you ask them for a price to deliver the screen securely to Scotland (Glasgow area) or maybe they might have a partner or distributor up in this neck of the woods.

Thank you!  :happy2:

I've asked about individual delivery and I'll let you know what the response is :) people will have to sort out installation etc. but its exactly the same to install as a standard windscreen (apparently) although I'm not sure where the wires come through.

Hey Jussa, sorry I didnt reply earlier on. I havn't asked him specifically but again much the same as with the leon it would have to be its own group buy (which again im sure wouldnt be too hard with the amount of A3 owners there are out there!) The 5+ isnt for any order from them, its for something which is a bespoke order so they do a run of 5 of the same type of screen to make it worth there while. So for example they couldnt do 2 MKV Golf, 2 leon and 1 S3 screen unfortunately :( although it would make it a lot easier!

Best to contact the guy yourself and have a chat :)

I must be one of the last blue-tint brigade, I'm afraid!

 :sad1:

You'll have to cross me off as well I'm afraid.

By the way, if I break my screen, can I still get a blue replacement?

Hey guys, bit of an update from the other possible supplier. Problem with this one is that it needs 25+ orders and all have to be same spec (i.e. all green with sensor) They can source blue screens but not heated (green are only with heated) and the price is £181 + VAT for basic green without sensor (but only adds a bit more for sensor) and delivery for all to one UK free or £50 +VAT to individual addresses.

For what we want I think the original supplier will be better as we can get away with 5+ orders for the green heated with sensors and works out about the same price. I'll email to discuss fitting but doubt they will be able to offer but worth the question.

What are peoples feelings here? Approx £270 per screen delivered to one location or £310 delivered to individual locations. Then fitting + wiring costs on top.

The Skoda Superb talks of a heated windscreen as an option.  :smiley:

And very good it is too  :happy2:

FYI, heatedwindscreens.com (the 1st supplier contacted) is owned and run by Ricky Evans, who developed these many years ago for use in rally cars, I know of several people who have used his screen without any bother, Ricky is also a top bloke! (and can certainly 'pedal' a FWD rally car  :jumping: )

The extra £13 for the sensor mount is because these are bonded onto the screen like your OE one.

Finally Ricky also owns Tamworth Mobile Windscreens so he would be the ideal person IMO to fit the screen for you and would remove the possability of the screen getting broken 'in transit' by the courier company :happy2:

The wiring looms on the OE screens are bonded to the bottom corners of the screen  :happy2:

For the benefit of the whole group buy, would you mind saying how much to fit and wire inc. Sensor etc? Is be willing to make the journey if you could fit for a reasonable price. Another auto electrician mentioned possible complications with can bus?

I spoke to Ricky but no mention of fitting, he said to me he can't fit the screens?!
