I've seen worse around the screen bud. At least you're doing the right thing

Good luck bud

Yeah that's not so good round the screen, it has spread pretty far round, but it looks like still surface only atm where the screen sits, so definitely still saveable.
Definitely get some kurust or something on there asap just to stop the spread in the short term.

The A pillars are a nightmare design to try and rust protect, it's nigh on impossible to get any rust protection in behind them and when you do, I'm not actually sure how far it gets.

If you take the interior trim off, you can use the clip holes to access it. I stuck the Bilt Hamber wand down each hole and held the spray down forever, moving the wand up and down (fnar fnar).

Yeah I did that on my UKDM, but didn't feel there was much success at getting in everywhere.
I forget why, but from memory was it that it looked like a double skin for the most part or something, so you weren't actually getting onto the back of the outer skin (where it rusts)

Yeah I know what your'e saying, I found it difficult to tell if was actually the back of the outer skin as it were. I told myself it was to make me feel better
