I'm only mentioning it on this thread as bonnet tape came up, not as a suggestion for the side screen rubbing as film is definitely the answer


Oldie but a goodie.

Important Press Release: The manufacturers of KY Jelly have announced that their product is now fully Year 2000 compliant. In the light of this they have now renamed it as: 'Y2KY Jelly'. Said a spokesman: "The main benefit of this revision to our product, is that you can now insert four digits into your date instead of two"
