    Wingnuts are one of those simple inventions that are brilliant

    Keen to see how you plan to run the heated mirror wiring !

    A heated windshield is a blessing and a curse. One small stone hits that window… and now it’s just a regular piece of glass.
    Had my Discovery 4 since 2012 and gone through 10 windshields with it. It’s an absolute stone-chip magnet. Think our record was 2 months between new windows. No sooner had the new one been out in than _WHACK!!!_ it gets nailed again by another rock on the highway 🤦‍♂️

    Only thing i would say is to drill the holes in the door and get the gromits, its just far nicer and safer than having the bare wire there 👌

    Adding the draw from the mirrors, you have just increased the total draw above what the wiring was designed for, the heated windscreen has a draw of around 15amps

    Only think I would say is I would make sure you don't overload the fuse you might want to work out the draw plus the cigar lighter if you have maybe a phone charger or sat nav plugged in

      I Have an issue, unless you have a very, very good high capacity starter/lights battery or a nice aux battery, the windscreen can draw up to 40 amps, the mirror pads are not low voltage,, its a 12v system , they are a lower amperage, If you dont understand theVolts/current/Ampere then i suggest you dont advise others
