T5 windscreen on T6

[Gogi]

Hi All

My windscreen is completely trashed, crack going all the way from the left corner to centre and still moving!!

Obviously I need to replace it but I'm in Bulgaria and it's a 10 to 14 day wait time for it to arrive new. There are plenty of T5's around on OLX (eBay like) and avtomorgas (scrapyards) but just wanted to double check that they fit the T6, also if any of the T5's came with heated/rain detection windscreens? I'm not really bothered about those features, just so I know what I'm paying for?. The are selling for around 300 leva which is about a £130, so pretty good.

Will need to remove/fit it myself which I think I can manage with a little help.......so any advice on which type of sealent to use would be also great! Thanks

Gogi

No idea on if the T5 and T6 screens are the same, but good on ya for having the balls to sort the problem on your own, many wouldn't be brave enough to give it a go and just pay 'the man' through the nose to get the job done!

I'm not sure what the auto parts suppliers are like in bulgaria but i'm assuming amazon is a thing there, so should be able to get the adhesive from there if no where else. Have a search for 'windscreen bonding adhesive', i believe this is what is commonly used nowadays - https://www.3m.co.uk/3M/en_GB/p/d/b40066982/

Good luck!

It will depend if you have auto lights/wipers etc as the mirror mounts are different T5.1 to T6
