Default Replacement Wiper arms.

Hi guys.

during the recent bad weather my drivers side wiper started to fail. upon investigation I found that the spring had worn its way through the rivet pin. after scouring Ebay found another set (used), photos looked in good nick but once recieved i found that the spring was already half way through the pin.

I can not find new replacement, either ONS or copy.

I am sure that others must have experienced the same and a solution must be out there..... just need to know where to look.

thanks in advance.

Dean

Nothing to stop you putting in a replacement pin of the correct size. Might need to make the replacement, but simple enough. Always apply a little oil to the pin/spring contact as well as the main arm pin.
