Get ready for the lonnng bad winter!

We are now offering these heated washer kits..

I don't know about you guys, but I did a trip at Christmas down to Newport Pagnell from Stoke area, it was an hour and a half before the ice melted on the INSIDE of the sunroof

The joys of having poor heaters (not that Puma owners know about that)

So I think these are quite a good idea for the washers..

Free postage (uk) and vat included.

I bought mine directly from Alphatherm - they're advertised at $118 which is roughly £72.00 but you have to add on shipping and import tax. I used mine last winter and overall I'm pleased I bought it.

Greeni,
Why not come up with a Staffordshire 4x4 solution, 12v heat trace, some wire, a fuse and a switch £50, I'm sure you'd sell loads.
