993 Rear Screen Replacement

[Ocho]

Hello all

Just wondering if anyone has any experience of DIY'ing this job?

The heating elements on mine are shot with only a couple of "lines" working. I've found a second-hand replacement screen that looks good and seller tells me it was functioning before removal. Wondering whether all the seals will need replacing whilst I'm at it or whether they might be ok? I presume getting the screen past the wiper is simply just taking off a few bolts to take the arm off so that shouldn't present a problem.

Any input gratefully received.
thanks

Two unbeatable answers. Thank you. I guess that's this thread closed until I report the decapitated spectator watching down at Goodwood on a cup weekend when Arsenal don't have a game.

OK - quick decision made. Pass.

Spoke to Paul the Glassman. Now there's a man who knows his stuff.

The one I could get has had the track removed which is basically a big red flag as it means a whole load of extra work and they could also have different wiring depending on year of donor compared to mine.

I can live with a misty rear window in the winter for another 5+ years...

Funds don’t right now as I suspect on top of the expense of a new screen there will be additional remedial action required. I’m not saying never, just not now…
