windscreen

The windshield (North American English) or windscreen (Commonwealth English) of an aircraft, car, bus, motorbike, truck, train, boat or streetcar is the front window, which provides visibility while protecting occupants from the elements. Modern windshields are generally made of laminated safety glass, a type of treated glass, which consists of, typically, two curved sheets of glass with a plastic layer laminated between them for safety, and bonded into the window frame.
Motorcycle windshields are often made of high-impact polycarbonate or acrylic plastic.

    Windscreen Wiper Blades

    We don't need them yet but has anybody found a source for these yet? Have had a search online and nearly all the suppliers don't seem to know our MG3 Hybrids even exist!

    What about you?

    Does the rear windscreen wiper have an "open" mechanism? Is this also the case on your MG3 ??

    Windscreen wiper warning!

    Just a quick warning about the front windscreen wipers . . . . DON'T lift the passenger side wiper up off the windscreen to wash the windscreen or to change a wiper blade, it will catch the bonnet and either damage the wiper arm or chip some paint off the back edge of the bonnet. Wiper catches...

    Rust on Drive Shaft of Windscreen Wiper

    I noticed this yesterday as I was cleaning the windcreen. One of the two shafts that turns the windscreen wipers had rust on at least the visible part I am wondering why and why on only one? And if anyone else has spotted rust in the same place. The car, a Trophy Estate, is 17 months old.

    Windscreen wipers lifting at higher speeds

    Does anyone else have problems with the XPower windscreen wipers lifting and becoming useless as far as clearing rain is concerned over around 130kph/80mph? I may need to look for better blades with spoilers or add-on spoilers to get better pressure onto the screen as they become positively...

    Pull it off?!

    Just got my MG4, noticed a sticker on the windscreen and am wondering whether to pull it off. Possibly it’s an RFID tag used during delivery?

    Hello everyone, I got a new mg4 ev (trophy long range) 9 months ago, and the windscreen wipers do not function properly. When I turn them on the wipers will stop halfway and there is a buzzing sound (possibly a sign the motor is running), which gets louder as you flick the switch. I am having...

    Wiper Blades

    The other day I replaced the original blades on the ZS with Bosch aero twin blades, what a remarkable difference, they clean the windscreen far better than the original ones
