Hi, I'm interested and can help. I've got a printer that can print carbon and my CAD skills are not up to doing the STL file. I'm happy to print out and make sets available for cost plus p&p. I have to import the NylonX (carbon filament) from USA unless there is any in the UK. It's been gathering dust for a year for various reasons but mainly being crap at CAD
If you use my method for removing the lower windscreen trim, they do not break
Now that would be hind sight hahaha. My captive nuts wouldn't budge and I found that around half were missing from mineIf you use my method for removing the lower windscreen trim, they do not break
Auto windscreens did mine on the insurance cost me£70 excess and they fitted new top and bottom trims which came with new clips.
I also had fun and games with the driver's side heated screen.there is a relay that is energised when ignition is on that sends power to relay5 which switches to power the passenger side of the window and also relay 4 which switches to power the driver's side of the window.
sure I posted if you do a search which will give the relay numbers.
Doing it yourself gives you the time to do it properly. If the chip is repairable id repair rather than replace. I chose to replace with non heated version and disconnect the wiring as the scuttle will be off anyway, so i have spares if you break them. Non heated screen is far lighter and much much cheaper than the original. Yup,my fitter wouldn't fit the one supplied to him because it was damaged,had to wait a week for the replacement but worth it.Not a job i wanted to do, was either do it myself or scrap it
Bottom trim slid out no problem then got the clips out later, lost my patience with top trim and ripped it off in anger. clips are fragile they dont need to be strong to hold it in. i reused most of them and bonded the bit i buckled back on with the windscreen bond and clamped it overnight.
No leaks or whistling but the trims buckle very easily so gently bently
Luckily mine cracked in the passenger side bottom corner and the Boss said have you seen this and pressed and the crack shot across the screen.
