The only SHO I ever saw with a "heated" windshield was Del Smith's SHO,
Way back when.
the heated windshield has a thin metallic layer between the glass layers
that provides the heat, it also slightly tints the windshield. Del put
his in because as an ex fighter pilot, he had sensative eyes from a
phosphorous bomb that went off in front of him during Nam. He didn't
hook up the heater feature though, the SHO doesn't have the wiring for
it, only available on the regular Taurus. He also had limo tint on ALL
windows other than the windshield. Was constantly getting stopped and
had to show his letter from his doctor.
