Its Winter...

Why in the world would anyone want to buy a heated windshield wiper reservoir? I live in the "Great White North" (which by the way is +10F at the moment) and use -45 fluid in my car. If it ever got to the point that my washer fluid was frozen....then I would walk right back where I came from and stay there where it's safe. If the washer fluid was frozen, then it's a good chance that the antifreeze is as well and the engine is at danger. Anyone that can sell that ploy can obviously sell refrigerators to Eskimos up in the North Pole.

IF...IF..it worked at all, I would be worried about throwing a heated liquid on my sub-zero windshield. An object that changes temperature that fast is liable to damage. I know..my brake rotors did that a couple of years ago.

In really cold weather I would rather have a heated seat, than heated windshield washer fluid!
