The arm that is mounted to the car has a rubber (or different soft plastic) blade that acts as a squeegee whilst also not scratching the windscreen.

Window tinting is not an essential part of car ownership, however, not only will it make you look cooler, it’ll make your car cooler too. There are plenty of benefits of window tinting, besides aesthetics. Made out of a variety of scratch and UV resistant materials, window tinting will continue to provide benefits to your driving experience beyond the style points.

Rear Window Replacement

The rear window is the often forgotten, but not dissimilar, cousin to the front windscreen. While not utilised quite as much, it is still crucial to be able to drive safely on our populated roads, as well as serve as a structural support to the car.

While it may not incur as many stone chips as the front windscreen, when damaged, it does need to be replaced. Fortunately, it may have less sensors and display units than the font windscreen, so it is likely to be cheaper.
