I might be interested - or perhaps more interested to know if you have a single wiper install and whether or not it's any better than the standard shuddery ones, plus if the coverage is better?

No Guy I don't but I'd like to look into the single wiper option. IMHO the only way a single wiper arm would cover the whole screen is if it had a slipping cog like the single arm Merc has and that's complex.

Re yours: suggest you replace the blades regularly and also apply RainX to smooth the movement (if you haven't done so already).

Lotus Elises/Exiges manage with a single wiper and that's not a fancy slipping version. In fact I believe the motor is from a Citroen AX. Worth investigation?

Me, can't be bothered to fit it and would prefer access to the clutch master cyl anyway.

Rob - is it true that I heard you are removing your rear clam permanently so that you can access the engine and gearbox ?

Please PM me if you are interested. The drip tray can be collected near Windsor area. Cheers.
