Sun strip front and rear

[Monkey Nuts]

Hi all

 

I'm looking to get some custom sun strips made up and just wanted to know if anyone has any dimensions for the front and rear strips. Was going to order from Saitoworks but not sure if the rear is a completely different size

 

Thanks

Crazy idea, but maybe go measure your own car?

 

Saitoworks specify the size of theirs anyway, so you can work on that basis.

Do not go too deep even a thin strip can make seeing traffic lights tricky 

. I find myself dukeing under it to view lights all the time. MINE IS NOT THICK !

Don’t forget to fit shorter wiper blades too, else it’ll fail the MOT.

I took a chance with mine even knowing the failure posibility. Government run centres here in NI I use Downpatrick all the time as ALLWAYS COMPLETLY REASONABLE. Compared to my local centre that I had to drive past and drive another 25 miles to get there. Newtownards MOT would FAIL A BRAND NEW WHEELBAROW. I never ever go there. Newtownards MOT are notoriously bad.

Blimey, why?

[Ekona]

Cos it’s in the book. I can’t see any practical reason why it’s in there though!

Must be clear of the sweep of the wipers. Let mine go tho Downpatrick are more than reasonable.

On my previous Z I had a 95% window tint. It's on the inside, so no problems with wipers. Don't know if that should be a problem for MOT in the UK. It was fine in the Netherlands. You could see the traffic lights just trough it and from the outside it looked completely black.
