Heated front screen
 

Unfortunately mine doesn't have it but it is something that I would like to fit. Looking on ETKA, I can't find a part number. Is it a plug and play (with coding) or is there more to it?

You'll need a heated screen module, which sits at the rear of the car, it takes the high current DC voltage from the battery and converts it to the high voltage, lower current needed for the screen (I believe), and you need to run cables the length of the from the module to the climate module, and the windscreen obviously, and then a bit of coding.

Theres no rocket science, but its a lot of interior dismantling to route all the cables properly.

+1 what IT says. Agree that it's the routing of the cables properly.

The front heated screen module is a slave from the Climate Unit. It's located in the boot near the battery.

Module identifier is J505 in the current flow and part number is 4E0910133.

I love the fact that we are in the middle of a heat wave and you are thinking about fitting a heated screen +++

Ah, but done properly, and you'd retrofit the whole heat and UV reflective glass all round, and that really is nice in this kind of weather +++

I'd rather fit it now, than do it in November! Just shows good planning I think +++

I think I already have the UV and heat reflective glass. Looking at the '09 brochure, it was standard but wondering if it was standard on the facelift from 07/08?

I thought that the heated screen was standard on the S8's. Along with the heat reflective twin pane glass

Ooo. beaten at my own game, I missed the OP sig.....

Yes, S8 would have it as standard......

In that case I will check my boot for the module
