I'm setting a deadline for the cheques to get to me as the 20th of Jan (a saturday). PM me with your full name and postal address, a contact telephone number, and if you want the screen shipped or fitted, and if you want the top tint. Cheques are to be made out to “Ricky Evans Motorsport”


Prices are as follows:
Screen fitted on site: ?141 (120+vat)
Screen fitted on site, with top tint ?155.10 (120 + 12, plus vat)

Screen shipped to you: ?188 (120 + 40, plus vat).
Screen shipped to you, with top tint ?202.10 (120 + 40 + 12, plus vat).

Shipping is to UK mainland only.



Hi mate

No problem 10 of these would cost you ?120.00 +vat each . I can offer fitting on site at our workshop FOC or shipping to mainland uk for ?40.00+vat



Delivery on ten would take around 6 weeks at the moment





Best Regards



Rick



Right then, we need a list of names.

I am prepared to handle a group buy, but I've been having some financial issues recently, so I would only be accepting cheques made out directly to heatedwindscreens.com (Ricky Evans Motorsport), so that my own finances are not involved.

Add your name to this list with quantity required.

I have enquired about current draw, apparently they draw 15 amps. I'll also be having mine fitted onsite FOC, but I'll have done the wiring in preparation :).

Can someone do me a huge favour and save me some money? Does someone buying one fancy picking mine up and holding it until we can meet, anyone else going to meet Steve (duick) in Derby?

This is the same guy Sean recommended to me as I found out when I rang and he told me someone had already emailed him! doh.

Also, he said he still has some heated screens for Mk3 Cavaliers as the group buy didn't materialise. If anyone wants one as he wants them shifted.

Is this on MIG, JOV, VS etc, if not, do you want me to post it up?

Scott

Once I've got 9-10 names, I'll start taking payments, once enough payments are received I'll close the group buy to extra ones and get them ordered, they'll take another 6 weeks or so to arrive once they've been ordered.

As a rough guess, I'm going to say 10-12 weeks or so until they arrive, maybe a little longer due to xmas/new year.

No, they're ?120+vat for the screen, free fitting is available, but postage is ?40+vat.

In the first week of january, I'll count the number of names still interested, double check the price, then start asking for cheques.

Just a reminder, cheques are the only form of payment I will be accepting, and they will be made out directly to the windscreen supplier, not to me.

raymond
12-12-07, 05:17 PM
do the screens come top tinted or not

Welsh Dan
12-12-07, 05:56 PM
I've just asked :).

BIGS
12-12-07, 06:01 PM
can i pay the company direct with a card? or is it just the cheque to yourself only?

Welsh Dan
12-12-07, 06:28 PM
If you want to pay him with a card thats fine. Read my post again. I will not be accepting any cheques made out to me, or any cash, or paypal. I will only be accepting cheques made out directly to the supplier.


Hi mate

The only ones we stock are clear heated . I can order them in top tint though for ?12.00 extra



Cheers

15-12-07, 02:59 PM
They insist that they are very well packaged for shipping. Peronally I'd stick a few duvets in the back of the car if i was carrying one around in my car though, packaged or not.

I'm setting a deadline for the cheques to get to me as the 20th of Jan (a saturday). PM me with your full name and postal address, a contact telephone number, and if you want the screen shipped or fitted, and if you want the top tint. I will get the exact name to go on the cheques when I get home, then I will respond to your PM's with my postal address and the payee name and exact amountfor the cheques.

They do make them for other cars, they don't list them for that one, I'll ask for you though.

Welsh Dan
20-12-07, 10:17 AM
I forgot to mention in my last post, apparently they now have the untinted ones in stock, but there will be a 6 week lead time for top tinted ones.

I personally want a top tinted one, but I'm tempted to get a normal one and then apply my own tint/sunstrip.

EDIT: Stu, if you want 10 he can get them, but not one.

Stoo
20-12-07, 10:32 AM
ill look into a group buy on the forum. ta

cheers damian

Welsh Dan
20-12-07, 10:36 PM
On my day off of the week following the 20th of jan, I'll be delivering the cheques myself and placing the order. From the sounds of things the non-tint ones are already in stock, but top-tinted ones will take 6 weeks from that point.

I don't know about when to go there for fitting yet. Any preferences?

raymond
21-12-07, 05:28 PM
ok matey cheers

sorry not sent cheque of yet will do it asap if its still on

Welsh Dan
16-01-08, 06:44 PM
Well, I've got 2 cheques so far. After the 20th I'll give the chap a ring and see if he'll still honour the discount even though we're down on numbers, and take it from there.

I'm not holding out for cheques after the 20th though, send it if you want one, and if it falls through I will return the cheques.

raymond
16-01-08, 06:50 PM

Welsh Dan
21-01-08, 03:48 PM
Too late sorry mate, because we're down on numbers we didn't get the discount. You're better off dealing with him direct.

I'm going to get mine fitted tomorrow :)

Had mine fitted today, havent wired it in yet though.

Ricky is a top bloke, I recommend his services highly, he even fixed the broken slide mechanism on my sunroof :D.


its amazing the difference a new windscreen makes on its own to visibility, wipers gliding over it etc...

Pics once its wired in.

Welsh Dan
27-01-08, 11:15 PM
I've wired it in now, works like a f**king dream lol. I wired the relays up to trigger when the internal fan is set to max, but as a bonus it stays on afterwards if you set the fan to the lower settings, and switches off when you turn the fan off.

Forgot to take pics lol.
