    They undo the snorkel at the top bracket, remove the intake from the top, pop the trims and do the windscreen.

    Then reverse.

    Did a quick run from Albany to Esperance and got to see how far it'd stretch its legs for the first time. Goes a bit faster downhill.

    Believe it or not, O'briens offer an aftermarket heated screen for the D3. I'm waiting on a call back for price and avail on a genuine. Didn't bother even getting a price for the aftermarket.

    I know mums D1 came with a heated screen. I wonder how many Aus spec D3/4 have them?

    Ask them to confirm the following:
    - screen thickness
    - acoustic damping property’s
    - solar filtering properties.

    If it doesn’t meet OEM (and I’ll bet it doesn’t) you immediately qualify for genuine.

    Why do you need a heated screen - dont need them even on a cold winter morning in Canberra - programme defrost setting on climate control works brilliant.

    Who said anything about "need"? I also don't need heated seats, the fuel burning heater, RSE with 6 stack DVD player and Dolby surround sound but if any of it broke I'd replace it because I like it.

    Car was manufactured with it, the HVAC unit expects to see it, I like it and I can't be arsed dealing with any potential issues or faults when the car no longer sees what it expects to see.

    If you've ever had and used a heated screen vs waiting for the defrost settings to do their thing, there is absolutely no comparison.
