Wiper arm nuts

Postby Dave_B on Tue May 28, 2013 7:16 pm

As the fiesta is having some attention I want to resolve any issues I find.

Does anyone know if you can still get the locking nuts that hold the wiper mechanisms to the scuttle panel. These are the ones that always rust and are under the plastic shrouds. If someone had a ford part number that would be great!

Thanks
Dave

Yeah they're the ones! The plastic covers are £4 each but I'd like to replace the nuts too as the plastic will just split again on the rusty nuts. I've got a microcat diagram but it doesn't make much sense!
