Post by Mr Blobby »

What size rear wiper blank do I need to get? It's 25 mm I think.

Thanks.

Yep :) that's the one I have got, it arrived thismorning, I will hopefully fit it at the weekend :)

I'm also going to take off the gti and polo sticker bits from the boot. Because my car is red will it have faded loads and leave an imprint of the badges? :(

Shouldn't have marked it as much as you think matey, just a simple polish should be ok mate unless it's super bad lol....

I used araldite to glue mine in... Works fine.....
