Re: rear wiper

Hello Steve,

Looking at your pictures, shows you have had rear wiper at some stage for the near side rear panel has the wash jet fitted.  Are you having a new door or door skin fitted on the rear?  Checking the parts catalog, it seems to me there is no options to buy a replacement panel with hole arrangements for rear wiper fitment.

In that case the hole has to be drilled by the body shop to fit the wiper motor.  It does seem strange that you have no motor but the there is a wash jet fitted, perhaps the pervious owner had this removed, I do not  know, I do not know the history of your vehicle.

You can, I suppose buy some secondhand parts to make up your wiper kit,  it will have to be wired in.

Try James Lafferty at Balooner Ltd 0118 972 1100. - not an easy guy to get hold of.

I send you a listing latter on for the parts you will need.

Regards,

Re: rear wiper

the door has been replaced , but has no sign of ever having a wiper  fitted . Do any G's have no wiper fitted to the door.
 I will sort an after market wiper , thats no problem , just cannot figure what model the door is off?
