Windscreen wiper blades

Post by Doug G »

Where can I get replacement windscreen wiper blades for my moke?

They are not like any others that I have seen and they are quite short.

I will post a pic.

Do you mean the rubber part (with its backing) or the thing that holds it? Replacement blades are available pretty much everywhere here.

The rubber part.

The metal bit is about 10 inches (Ill measure it) and is a 'U' shape which is clamped/pressed against the rubber strip/blade.

Maybe they come conplete ie metal and rubber as there does not seem to be a way to easily replace the rubber.

I know you don't get much rain but any sort of wiper blade will fit - they usually come with adaptors.
Anyway I think they are the same size as Landrover ones
