you cannot get a heated front screen for an omega, they never made one

[NaughtyNigel]

The nearest fit would be a screen for one of the Jaguar range.

I have a heated screen on my S-Type and find it very useful this time of the year.

Better still, it also has oil fired central heating to warm it up quickly in the winter.

Hi,

Uroglas in the UK make heated windscreens to order and will produce if a number of members get together to share the costs. The URl is http://www.uroglas.com/ They can be contacted at

It is entirely possible someone has already ordered a screen for the Omega, they were used in all sorts of climates and by bodies like the Police, Executive car hire, as Hearses and all sorts of roles where somebody might have wanted the car available at short notice and had one fitted.

Better brush these away

The heated front screen on my Jag is great this time of the year - and not noticable when driving.  Had one on my partner's  Mondeo a few years back and whilst it functioned well agree with Jimbob that it was well noticable when driving.

Any use??

Bloody hell, they're only 2 mins from my house...

I had a heated screen on my old sierra ghia, was brilliant. Beats the blowers on full blast any day, keeping the screen clear

Not that I like deicing.....but I need to do the side windows as well not just the front.  Takes about a minute to scrape light ice off, or about 2 if I use some luke warm water to help.


I despise the constant 'starburst' effect of everything viewed through a heated screen, which is absolutley horrendous to my eyes once switched one.

I get a headache after driving with one for about 10 minutes.

I hate them when turned off,
I despise them even more turned on.

On a similar note...I could never stand using trinitron style computer monitors, I found the damping wires very offputting.

i agree i had a company mondeo altho in winter the screen was yes very good at defrosting on a frozen morning, and the screen was clear in the frosty weather & wipers didnt freeze or get frozen patches knackering wiper blades but i agree that in the sunlight the wavey elec wires "starburst" drove me mad & vision was really odd.... oh the new screen cost more than the car in the end & insurance wrote it off when it got cracked by a gritter lorry!!! as company only had it 3rd party!!

Damit that reminds me i need a screen in my mig estate due to a rather gritter lorry chipped screen right in the black area of sunstrip 1" from rubber! next morning had gone across screen  ! Good job im fully comp £60 for a new one!! but i may wait for a week or 2 to have mine changed just my luck it happen again with amount of grit on roads!!!
