so simple swaped mine start to finish in under half hour ,the good old string in the rubber works well ,can be done on your own ,but 2 would be easier ,if your using your old rubber ,chances are the window will crack up if your cracks close to the end ,make sure there is no glass splinters left in the rubber ,other wise when u fit your new one it will break ,

Easy as Fook on one of them just watch the head liner as it's easy to make a right mess if you un fold it from the aperture as you string it in

No, and this isn't the classifieds forum. And the thread was posted 9th August 2012

Try posting in the wanted section. Or a windscreen company.
