Top tint windscreen?
« on: 18 February 2010, 22:34 »
Hi. Does anybody know if its possible to buy a top tint windscreen from VW dealers or are they obsolete? If they are still available do you have a part number and idea of price? Thanks.

You could get someone to fit a tinted strip to the top of th windscreen, maybe this would look as good.  

I rang autoglass the other day looking for a front windscreen for my own Mk2, they told me they can supply a tinted windscreen.  Maybe try them.

my top tinted screen is an RAC jobber, very good quality nice dark tint zone. some have a light green tint zone and dont look as good imo.
