Heated windscreen
 
Well my heated screen arrived from Ricky Evans Motorsport today, it should be getting fitted tomorrow morning.

Fingers crossed the rain will give it a break, and then it'll be on with project "wiring it up".

No pics to post, we all know what a windscreen looks like lol

Pics or it didn't happen!





I'm gutted I didn't have my mk2 project when the thread went up I'd have liked to combine a heated mirror/front screen heater button.
You linking it to the rear screen or mirrors or individually?

You want a pic of a windscreen lol.

I'm undecided about which way to go with wiring, I've got the Summer to think about it.

you'll have the 'first ever' zs/400/45/civic with a heated front screen in that case, one for the record books.

Could do with pictures of the tails.

petet16 14-05-13 05:34 PM

The tails are about 15" long, 2 at each lower corner, and fitted to the edge of the glass, and are left outside when the screen is fitted.

I've had another look at the wiring diagram for the hrw on a mk2 and decided that the easiest way to wire it is by splicing into the feed that operates the relay for the rear screen to operate a fused relay for the front screen, and take a power feed from the ignition switch for the heating elements, it'll save having another switch, and will mean the front screen is timed like the rear one.
