Phase 2 Windscreens

[Silky 33 1 Cars]

Do they have a coloured tint to them or are they clear ?

 

Mine has some cracks on it so needs replacing, just want to get it replaced with the correct colour

AFAIK the windscreen is clear, it is only the side windows having the 'bronze' tint? I could be wrong though...

When I had mine replaced through insurance they asked whether it has a tint/green part at the top part of it, I should have said yes!

I take it you whould've said yes to compliment your Sorrento Feb ?

 

Mine is Cherry so don't think Green will go

I'm pretty sure mine has the bronze tint, if you open your side window and look at something through the open window, then the same thing through the windscreen the colour definitely changes!! My windscreen is definitely original, well at least it's OE, it's got the Peugeot/Talbot logos above the mirror!

bronze just like the rest of the windows, and if you buy it from Peugeot make sure you specify sunroof or not as they come with the seal, there is green listed too, though I've never seen a green tint on a 205.

I'm sure they have a slight tint, but it may be down to 3rd party replacement quality etc. The windscreen in my gf's KA (spits) is noticeably "brighter" jumping out the 205 straight into hers.

Definately bronze tinted. A clear screen just wouldn't look right. Specify if you have a sunroof as the seals are different to a non sunroof screen seal.

Interesting but why are the windscreen seals different between sunroof and non-sunroof models?

[M@tt 77]

sunroof model has a slight lip at the top of the screen seal so that if you have the sunroof open it directs the air up slightly over the sunroof opening so you don't get as much noise/wind blowing into the car/rear seat area

I have a sunroof.

 

Would you suggest claiming on an insurance policy or buying one direct from Peugeot and getting it fitted ?

Claim from insurance if you can! It cost me £60 3 years ago and you don't loose any bonus.
