Front Screen



FRONT SCREEN





The laminated front screen is bonded, and sealed, to the body aperture using PU sealant. Heat bonded to the inner surface of the screen is the optical unit for the rain sensor and the interior mirror mounting boss.

Vertical fine-wire multi-strand elements are fitted between the glass laminations to de-ice and demist the screen. At the bottom of the screen six horizontal heating elements bonded to the interior glass surface prevent the wiper blades freezing to the screen during adverse weather conditions.

The screen is supplied with the heating element flat foil connectors fitted to a moulded sealed terminal block. This terminal block is wired to a connector for connecting to the vehicle harness.
