I need of a be windscreen and seen on for £30 near me. I have an 03 gti 180 but the windscreen is from a 206cc. Will this fit my car? Also it has light/rain sensor does this effect the type of windscreen I need?

Think a CC is different to hatch .. but maybe someone can confirm. I think there is a specific screen with sensor .. so you have to get the right one ... don't you have screen cover on your insurance?
Reusing a screen may not be a good idea ... they are not easy to remove without chipping them and this will just weaken it ...

I can use my rain sensor but not sure if it has to be a compatible windscreen. The difference I can see is on mine with the sensor there is some black film? That extends behind the mirror a tad more. If anyone can get what I mean from that lol

The CC front windscreen will not fit the hatch,if your car got light/rain sensor ,you need to get a windscreen the is the same as yours so that you have the original look,and hide sensor and wiring behind the black film.

Why not claim off your insurance?

The only time I asked it wasn't much cheaper the fully comp and a lot less risky.
Still a gti screen should fit but my concerns over a 2nd hand screen still stand ...

The black dotted mask on windscreen is to hide wiring and probably prevent extra light intake.
Rain/light sensor lenses will have a clear rectangular cut-out into which they will be glued with special translucent and particle-free glue.
The sensor itself clips onto those lenses, and can be swapped out easily.
Your best bet is a windscreen with rain sensor (at least mask and undamaged lenses) from a 206, I wouldn't risk it for biscuit.

Make a few phone calls and see how much it will cost for a new screen supplied and fitted. I paid £90 from a local independent fitter.
The screen on ebay is secondhand and £75 (and I highly doubt a 207 screen will fit in a 206). Add another £30-£40 on for fitting, and that's if you can find someone to fit a secondhand screen.
Is it worth scrimping on safety?
