They're identical apart from the spoiler mounting holes

I'd try and get the screen done on insurance though...

Do it through insurance, you will get the same part and it doesnt count as a claim either, for the sake of an extra £30-40, I would do that.

Im with Adrian Flux they do not cover rear screens regardless.... Front screens only. I dont have windscreen cover anyway.

But i phoned a local company, Cornwall Windscreens. cost me £215 brand new rear screen fitted same day. Bit more than i wanted to pay but its done and in the past now.
