Heated front windscreen

28 Aug 2010, 5:07pm
Just working out the designs for a scratch built trike and was wondering about windscreens.

I know that if I fit one it needs to be safety glass and able to heat/demist.
But because it will be a single seat trike I was thinking about using a heated rear screen from a narrow hatchback. I've found a Porsche 911 one cheap that would be a nice narrow wrap around screen.

Does anyone know if I might get away with it when inspected? I was thinking of the heater element lines being in view.

Thank you.
