True. Though I find I use mine a lot even if the screen isnt frozen. They are great for clearing a misted windscreen.

M12-Eng/Offroad alloy steering guard arrived, then I realised it doesnt come with any bracket to chassis bolts Sad . Fitted Triple Edge silicon blade wipers to the front screen. Now just need to work out if I can swap the rear wiper without removing the spare wheel Confused. To be tested later as its currently its a bit frozen, also fitted some "207" SMD LED bulbs to front side lamps, its gone from faded yellow glow to nice and bright white. 2023 110 P400e
