I have had them in cars before, and only found them mildly irritating, and that only when driving straight into the sun.
I found the benefits outweighed the irritation

Danny,
Great find - I've been trying to find one for the racer for years (the projects taken that long!!). I've had heated screens on various cars and you eventually ignore the wires as they are in the "near eye".
E mail your thoughts on the SEAC!!

Doh! Got in touch with the Heated Screen Web site (turns out I know the guy!!) and he sais that he doesn't do TVR Heated Screens but can get batches of 10 done - guess there's not 10 owners out there wanting one!!

I miss the heated screen inmy old mondeo. If I can get a heated screen for my 400. then it would definatly be worth it. Nomore fogging up on damp mornings, or when caught in those summer showers.

Had a heated screen in a rented Ford Feck-Arse. About the only redeeming feature of the car. Caught the light a bit while driving towards the Sun, but that wasn't a big deal.

Had them as standard in the Range Rovers I've had, great kit, no problems with the ultra-thin elements at all.

Has anyone ever got a quote for these if 10 people were interested?

Contacted them again, got a price this time.

[quote]The more we can make the more competitive the cost price will be
Based on 10 this would come in at around £160.00 each if say we could do
25 this would drop to around £135.00 each [/quote]

Anyone interested?

I'd be up for that - you best get some deposits up front to secure an order - at least 20% from those interested.
