    My rear window is developing a haze. I appears to be in between the layers of glass. I'm guessing there is probably no fix but on the off chance there is would anyone be willing to share it? Next is there any thing that can be done to prevent it from spreading? The lighting in the photo makes it a little difficult to see but I think you can get the gist.

    google "windscreen delamination"

    Basicly its the layers of glass in the "laminate" separating and as far as I'm aware the only cure is to try and hide it with a sticker (LOL!) or replace it when it gets really bad :-(

    I'd agree it's simply delamination of the two glass layers and plastic sandwiched between them. It's really annoying but I think you just have to live with it until it gets to the point where you can't. Seems to happen more to screens that have bigger curvature involved but I suppose that's placing the bond under most challenging circumstance. I've seen this a lot on 348/355 front screens.

    I know there is a small spot on my 348 that does that, but here in the Phoenix sun it quite often heats it up and melts it again so the haze will come and go. But you always see the area that heats and cools... so maybe a heat gun/hair dryer to re-melt (carefully) the glue and reset?

    I may have to give that a try.
