EPC shows;

Windshield (with heating) A2306700901
Windshield (without Heating) A2306701001

Could this be something different to what I am understanding as heated windshield i.e. heating wires in the glasss like the Ford system?

You really have got me on this, there is not even a place for a switch, but then as WIS is running tonight I took a look and it says take care when removing heated windshield plug from screen what are you doing to me I wll examine it in the morning

I have just been out looking,,nothing on mine, this must be an automatic thing like the mirrors as there are no blanks unacounted for. And like your car the switch is all one lump, I still remember that thread

Went to Road angel today at their HQ in Silverstone. Excellent service!.Tried every product and the upshot is so far that the RA plus works just fine. The New Professional works even better ( ie inside their office!) but at twice the cost. If you do the mileage then the Prof connect is the Biz but I bought a RA plus at bargain price and its worked just fine so far ( ie 20 miles). Boots up and finds Sats in a mile/3 mins and locks on; power down if no use for 5 mins and powers up when you start off again imediately.Also the look is good between the speedo/rev cowlings of the SL. ( will post pic asap) and has magnetic base to place/remove really easily.

Will see how it goes over the next few days and let you know.:bannana: so far

road angel photos

AS promised here are 2 photos of my RA on dash...not very exciting but shows up better in real life and the info is right in front of you without getting in the way. Excellent for that moment when you see the camera but not realy sure of the limit as the Ra shows both limit and digital speed so you realy have all info

When you say powers up and down, is it battery operated or from the car

Either. I bought it as it runs ( for how long remains to be seen) off battery and thus no wires on install,just the unit as you can see on a magnet holder on dash.

I intend to charge & update it quite regularly and certainly before any long run so I hope battery life wont be a problem.It has a 12v lead to the cigar socket just in case and a good low battery warning.

I got a good deal which RA have intimated that they would repeat for MB Club members but dont want to publish the price so as not to upset their Dealers ( Local MB Dealer...oh what a shame!)

Will PM you

Just got back from a trip to Torbay and back with a leisurely "pretty route" over a 9hr period
Battery lasted the whole trip!
