Isn't that a sign of delamination....? Not sure.

Yes delaminating at the edges.. the screen is made up of glass outer and inner.. with a plastic sheet in the middle. If moisture creeps up from the outside it causes the plastic to go cloudy.

Re: Windscreen going milkey in the bottom corners.

Silly question, however have you tried using some windex to clean the corners? I know sometimes road film can build up in the extreme corners over time, and can be missed in the cleaning process. I do this from time to time and it removes the porblem. If its not that, then it could be the lamination of the windscreen.

Tinted A460 671 05 10 £113 + VAT

Clear A460 671 02 10 £83.50 + VAT

Sounds like simple de lamination to me...
