Omega General Help / Re: Windscreen replacement - what is involved?
« on: 15 December 2019, 16:48:21 »
GF is the code on all my Omegas irrespective of whether or not they have a rain sensor or CDX or Elite models.
Most cars have heat absorbing screens - heat reflective are easily identifiable as they have a blue / silver sheen to them looking from the outside like poser sunglasses, and in my opinion look terrible. I have an Elite with a reflective screen fitted, but I wouldnt have another, just from an appearance point of view.
Heat absorbing without rain sensor - 90457721
Heat absorbing with rain sensor - 24433003
Heat reflecting without rain sensor - 9146283
Heat reflecting with rain sensor - 24433002
Upper rubber moulding - 90460335
Lower rubber moulding - 9175100
The original seat (90460334) that clips around the screen is not available now (for the rubber to sit in), so the alternative part numbers are -
Upper 90493424
Lower 90460336
Right 90493426
Left 90493425
I last bought a set in early 2017 - although the RH and LH retainers were then only stocked in Germany. Your VX dealer will ge able to advise on availability now, but make sure they search out of the UK if not shown available here, as some find this 'too hard to do', or don't actually know how to search other than stock in the UK.
A screen that I bought approx 12+ years ago, came with the whole retainer / seat (90460334) already attached, but now they are supplied (assuming still available) in separate pieces.
Hope that helps.

tanks are different size and shape 
- purely because the fuel gauge is the same part number across the range irrespective of engine size and body type. Therefore as with most cars, surely it's more to do with the source of the information i.e. a fuel gauge sender unit that reads the level of fuel relative to the tank capacity and sends the info to the gauge....
