Windscreen For SVA

Guys

When I take my car for SVA, I am taking it with no screen so I dont have to fit wipers etc, the screen will be fitted after the car has passed it SVA.

However, when the car is ready for its 1st MOT, does the screen need to come back off since the car will still not have any wipers.

Cheers

Ash

For MoT if you have a screen (unless it can fold flat) you need both washers & wipers





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

If you have a full screen then you are likely to want wipers and demist, for your own benefit rather than meeting the regs.

Try driving any car in the rain without the wipers on...

PS: I've got aeroscreens!

rain x works wonders, no need for wipers even though they are fitted

If you have no wipers, you stand the risk of plod pulling you under 'construction and use' regs. Saying that, I ran for 6 months with none (still don't have washers!).
