CSL screen is slightly thinner and thus slightly lighter too.

There are 3 or 4 different screens available iirc.

your car may have been 544 climate comfort screen,which was an option over the standard screen.;)

that's exactly what i said - only CSL rear windsceen is thinner! LOL :gayfight:

Lawsy mentioned the front windscreen is thinner as well, which it isn't and hence my comment about some of you getting upset that your BMW CSL shares the same part number with standard M3... LOL
