Anyone had their heated windscreen installed yet and actually used it?
Interested to see some results on these.

Mines installed and was working for the first few weeks. Quick to remove frost and de-mist. No issues with mobile 3G/4G signal or sat nav. There are edges that don't de-frost, 90% of the screen does. If you look closely you can see where the heating element ends on the left / right side of the windscreen. No issues with fitment and recommend fitting a brand new rubber seal with the install. (Don't be a cheap ar$e)

We had some major frost the other morning so I tested but with no luck sadly. 15 mins and made no difference so when I grab a chance I need to take a proper look and see if some wirings come loose or the relays failed. When it's working again I'll make a video.
