BobK Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 The swept area on my windscreen is very limited (worst on driver side). Does anyone know if it is practical to fit longer wiper blades, particularly to the driver side ? If so, any suggestions for source ? The current wiper blades are 11".

Pete Lewis Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 on the Vit6 i fitted 10mm ? thick arms with adjustable length arms so you can raise the viewing area and fit longer blades the thicker arms give better screen pressure used https://www.vintagecarparts.co.uk/categories/vcp-windscreen-and-wipers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobK Posted August 22 Author Report Share Posted August 22 Pete, Thank you. I didn't know you could get extendables. That looks like the way forward and a good source. Regards, BobK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 keep to 15mm spline drive and bayonet blade connector if the arm needs a set a bit of care in a vice and they do bend ok, any judder is due to the arm holding the blade let say lopsided the blade should flip flop equally in each direction a quick tweek with a adjustable spanner to twis the arm a little can work wonders Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
