Replying to: tiff_c (Dec 03, 2007 10:09 am) Yeah a few cars do. Land Rover has it on all of their models as do some Jags and Astons. I think Toyota might have it on a couple of vehicles and it is an option on UK market Fords. Replies to this message: tiff_c (Dec 03, 2007 10:42 am)

I did hear about some sort of windscreen in cars a few years back that had a coating or something on it and you couldn't use a radar detector as a result. I'm so used to clapping my wipers and blasting the defroster that I'd probably forget I even had a heated windscreen or a heated outside mirror.

Replying to: capri33 (Dec 03, 2007 9:11 am) Measure your both wipers, the front wipes are probably 2 different sizes. At the Wal-xxxx near where I live I got Ansco Winter wiper blades for $5.88 each. The winter blades are enclosed in a thin rubber over the normally open parts of an all season wiper blade so they don't freeze up. They are pretty easy to replace yourself (as long as you aren't out in the freezing cold with numb fingers). Here is a link for that show the different types of wiper arm attachments and has a video showing how to change blades. http://www.acdelco.com/parts/wiper-blades/installation.jsp Good Luck!!
#19 of 23 MINI Cooper: Traction on slippery roads by dem55 Oct 22, 2007 (7:08 pm)
We're ready to sell our European sportwagon for a Cooper, but wondering how good its traction is on wet or snowy roads. Any comments?

Replying to: justgiuls (Oct 09, 2008 5:51 pm) As long as the snow is not too deep, it'd be fine. Replies to this message: ex_tdier (Dec 22, 2008 10:05 pm)
