destructiv dave 0 Posted January 3, 2013 Changed my foliage seal and took the door cards off so that I can have a go at the membranes tomorrow. Also took out the underlay and carpet to dry them out. Reminds me of my first car, a 1984 Mk2 that suffered similar troubles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leon263 0 Posted January 27, 2013 Had a play with two Lupo passenger arms and standard Lupo blades. Passenger side is perfect but the driver's side is 1.5 inches too long when in the vertical position. I'll take 1.5 inches out of the arm, re-weld it and after a quick smooth, prime and some satin black I reckon I'll be there. Very neat compared to the standard wipers ........ well pleased. Many thanks to Supercharged for all the parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They fit perfectly with the Lupo arms. If it helps I can look through my receipts and find the part numbers of the blades? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
