   I have a Saxo VTR that is currently undergoing Track preparation.
   
   Just wondering if anyone knows where i can if possible source a heated windscreen for a mk1 Saxo.
   
   The reason im after this is so i can take out all the heater box, blower motor vents etc. Incase your all wondering

   surely a heated windscreen would have the same lines as the back one which would be illegal or atleast annoying to drive with?

   Another useless comment. If you would read through the Thread you would realise this is for a Track Car.
   
   As mentioned above some Fords have a Heated Front Screen standard.
   
   You dont honestly think they would give you a windscreen full of orange/dark brown lines.
   
   Im looking for advice on where i can get one, not a lecture on why i shouldnt get one.
   
   Thanks again for the useful advice

   if you look at the end of my post you will see a question mark i didnt know they had made a heated front screen and presumed they would require the lines since why would they do the lines on a rear if they can do it without them? i did notice it was a track car but aimed what i said at both which is why i said illegal or atleast just annoying and at what point was i lecturing that you shouldnt get one....

    You can piss off aswell. At which point was he trying to help? By telling me it was illegal? Why is it on Forums people just cant answer your question. All im looking for is a 'Yes im having one Fitted' , 'Yes you can get them from here' 'No they dont exist' Always some know it all appears and sticks there 2p worth in.
    You tell him straight then another idiot defends him.
    
    If you dont have information on a Heated screen i dont want to hear it
