AFAIK heated 'screen has never been available on E30 so you won't find one anywhere.

Not OEM, but aftermarket is available. Around 220 quid.

Where can you get hold of them then? Are they the ones with the lines you can hardly see?

I don't remember the company name, 4track or something. One bloke from it was here on forum (he has race E36 in avatar).

hmm, seriously tempting! especially as i need a screen anyway because mine's cracked, and it's going to cost 70squid through my insurance anyway.

anyone ever fitted a bonded in screen? is it possible to do it DIY? where can you buy the sealant from / what is it?

would make the 5am defrost before work in the winter a lot more bearable
