Ok guys, I understand that all of you with 10-30 minutes on your hands can prep the car with the FBH and heated screen. But in my experience, if I need to suddenly use the car and don't have time to wait then the FBH and heated screen are far too slow.

Anyway, I really want steaming nozzle jets.

10-30mins... So how long will it take your element to melt/heat the screen resevoir before the washers will work my friend?

the only problem i can see is the wipers being stuck onto the glass and might not be free until the warm water 'de-ices' them......maybe a combination of heated screen on first and then the warm water might work.. ... - .- -.

I was amazed last Winter at how quickly the heated screen clears the ice off the screen, but the FBH is the real jewel when it's cold, especially since it is on a timer so I set it 15 minutes befor I leave for work, and get in to a nice toasty car. Marvellous! I've never had a heated screen before - they're bloody brilliant!

Must admit I'm looking forward to giving the FBH a try in winter! I'm hoping it has enough range that I can activate it from the comfort of my warm bed, giving the missus a smug look before turning over for another 10 minutes snooze

I had (apparently) heated washer jets on my Touareg, wires going to them and everything. Absolutely useless. Still froze unless I had lots of screenwash in it. Do the LR ones actually work? Lloyd Barnes
