Wiper Spindle

Post by RobH »

Thread stripped on the passegnger side wiper spindle, super arm fell off today, so I need to find a new arm, any ideas for fixes or do I need to fit a whole new mechanism?

Any temp bodges to avoid full dash removal.

I have managed to get the whole wiper mech out with out the dash out, it was fiddly but it is possible. you can buy individual spindles

I too have a stripped spindle but can only seem to find LHD replacements. Anyone got a source for RHD?
