There is a hinged cap where it is attached to the car.

Lift that and you will see a nut.

Undo the nut and remove.

When fitting new one, bend until in position you would have it when cleaning screen so that it slides of the spindle evenly.

Want me to take a couple of photos tomorrow showing exactly how to do it?

Aye, I think i'll be taking a gander at the photos too please.

k, I'll do a "How too" tomorrow then.

So, flip the cap up to reveal the bolt.



Fold in this position to fit, ensures that you can slide it on the spindle with no strain on it that could lead to unequal fitment.

Thank you very much.

No! Don't do it.... Now I want one! 

Lazy question sorry (not at car at the moment), can you tell me what socket size I'll need please?

Mine takes a 13mm socket - and when you've done it, don't forget the lube.

Typical my new wiper has turned up but the car is in the bodyshop all week getting the wheels stripped and resprayed  :wall:

Mine don't have the flippy uppy thing, mine has a cap! Oh sh.... I hope I haven't bought the wrong one.

Thiswas my before and afters on the rear wiper.

Replacement arrived this Morning, now all I need is a spare few minutes to get to fit it!
Can I ask if anyone has a fix for the front arms now?

Thanks, but your pics show how to fit the new one, whereas my question was how to remove the old one ...... ????

Prise off the bolt cover, if you look closely you will see how to remove it with a small flat headed screwdriver.
Undo 13mm bolt

ok thank you
