Thanks

Glass shop should be able to cut a laminated safety glass windshield and install it for around $300. Heated will be expensive though nice, my RRC has a heated unit but it challenges the electrical system to run it along with the headlights, heater, etc... in very cold weather.

Never thought about the charging system?

Thanks for the info

Rovalution in N-Van had a couple of second hand Defender windshields last year, maybe worth a call to see if he still has them.

A few of us have heated front glass in our Defenders and they work really well. It will be close to $2K by the time you have added shipping, wiring, installation etc

Cheers
