If it keeps being a problem why not dewiper and plug the water pipe under the bonnet... Cleaner lines on the back and a dry boot too

Gutting, after all that effort you went to  :sad:

As suggested, dewiper?  Do you use it much?

I think it looks worst with the dirty bit round the outside and the clean bit in the middle, instead of just a dirty window... If it's that bad then get some wipes and clean the hole window

Thats your opinion which your entitled to, clean with wipes? Slightly difficult at 70 on the motorway

Yea just got some glass wipes that I keep in the boot if it's getting dirty just give it a quick clean... I wouldn't suggest doing at 70mph tho  :wink:
