mk2 golf lay flat punto rear wiper mod?

[B17 G60 0]

sorry peeps, but yet another mk2 golf question. Does anyone know how to fit the the punto rear wiper so it lays flat on the rear tailgate?

Seen someone on ebay selling it as a kit, but my mate reckons its just a case of changing the rear wiper to a punto rear wiper and lying it down or something.

 

Does anyone know how to do this correctly so it still works etc properly, before team D.I.Y attack it, lol

 

cheers :)

yup, take the arm off and fit the new punto one on in it's place.

 

To make it lay flat, you need to remove the mechanism arm from the motor (inside the boot lid) and rotate it by 180degrees. This should move the arm to the lay flat position. You can then adjust it so that it sits perfectly flat by removing the wiper arm and re-fitting it.... 8)

 

It's dead simple to do, and shouldn't take more than an hour... 8)
