Saturday morning here in Louisiana, finally got to sleep in late.
Finally, the rain has stopped. It has been raining all week long.
I see the last box from Rock Auto has arrived.
It must be the wiper blade.
In my haste trying to change the wiper
the arm sprung back to the windshield.
Cracking it in many directions.

It has been my quest to find a wiper blade
that will work with this cyclops wiper system.

Now finding a windshield for a 29-year-old
Jaguar shouldn't be too hard.
(LOL and crying at the same time)

I have searched for this topic on the X300's.
I have found the posts kind of dated.
Anyone recently have a windshield replaced?

I know the rubber/chrome seal attaches to the glass prior to installation.
Any suggestions where to get one?

BTW: I hope your day is going better than mine!

 

Ciao, anch'io ho dovuto sostituire il parabrezza e ho avuto la fortuna di trovarne uno originale di seconda mano, ma ho visto che in Italia si possono acquistare a circa € 600 originali e € 200 di concorrenza...
Il problema principale è un buon imballo professionale per la spedizione per evitare che arrivi in frantumi...!!
Buona fortuna!

 

Avenue Auto Salvage in Kansas City has an X300 and last I saw with front windsheild

The trick is the though seal on the lower edge , ECU connector water migration path

The windshield comes in 2 forms , non - heated and heated , gold heating element sheet in glass

If you look on the cars left opposite the engine ECU under a small cover you will see 2 same relay sockets that will most likely not be occupied
