    Never something we have considered Jamie. Depending upon how much interest there is we could look at it.

    You'd struggle to get one that's legal, I'm sure as soon as it is in the swept area it's an MOT failure.

    I've never seen the appeal of them, yes it's a nice way to personalise your car but it restricts your view and would drive me insane. I'd rather see than be cool but that's just me maybe I'm just old...

    I do like the look of them but they would wear the ends of the wiper blades out too quickly and the actual sunstrips just look awful when they have been scratched by the wiper blades.

    ....jus' my two penn'orth.
