Looking fantastic....what kind of wiring circuit are you going to use of the heated glass? Fuse amperage, relay I suspect as well as switching? What amperage does it pull/use?

Hi Glenn,
My car has a Late new Sierra Sapphire 4x4 loom in it, so it came with all the heated wiring/relays built in because sapphire 4x4's had heated screens

Over the moon to get it back mate.
It's been there since September.! I told them there was no rush, it suited me.
There work is top level, they do a lot of show cars and I've checked out a lot of there projects to make my mind up where to send it for paint.id say there price was fair for the amount of work and level of work they've done.

Not visible at all, like a factory heated screen

the hot screen is a stand alone loom and only ups the revs on idle to the ecu in the same way the ac would so it's a fairly easy aftermarket refit, just means the dash has to come out lol

the car looks amazing btw, although i'm also going to prefer the rims with the stickers on them

Loving that, I never thought aftermarket wheels suit the 3dr shape but I now stand corrected, great work, great car.

I used to spend ages covering the bodykit on my 500 if driving any distance, then I decided I was turning gay so I never did put it on again.

It was done at the Bodyshop!
I'm having a few little bits covered in VentureShield Next week so was just stopping most of the stone chips.
Oh and Congratulations on coming out the closet
