If I dont have a roof, I don't need a demister so I don't have to dismantle my consul, dash etc. It also resolves the high mount stop light problem being partially obscurred by the strip of trim under the rear perspex windows. The cling wrap idea is great too. I was thinking of keeping my golf umbrella in the car. I have a spare one for when Martha or Louise is travelling with me. Thanks Pal. We weill prevail.

Baz, my main concern here is that because RTA have listed it as a fault, it MUST be fixed, not sure if removing it will be classed as a fix.
Example being when I presented my car for rego to engineer, I had my aero screen fitted, because from a normal seating position you look over it, there was no requirement for wipers nor demister.
However, it did not pass due to the 4 point harness as opposed to retractable belts, in the time between the engineer inspection then finding out I had failed due to seat belts, I had refitted my full sized screen.
I contacted MVR (NT equivelant of RTA) and spoke to the man in charge of ICV's, he advised that rather than me flying engineer down for another look, he had spoken to engineer and both parties where happy for local branch of MVR to carry out seat belt inspection, I mentioned that I had refitted the original screen, he advised this was not an issue as they where only to inspect seat belts and any parts directly attributed to this fix (ie mounting points, correct operation etc)
My point is that anything marked as a fault at time of inspection, must be fixed, not removed.
But I honestly do hope it works for you.
