It’s raining. Guess what broke

It’s wiper arm failure day ‘again’.
The thin stick bit has broken at the bit where it’s riveted to the meaty bit. On close inspection there ain’t alot of meat left in that stick when they drill out for the rivets so it looks like I’m in the market for a new set.
I can’t remember the manufacturer but I replaced them while still being fobbed off with britpart crap from paddocks so since angrily closing my account with them I’m now looking for proper ones.

Any suggestions?

Fraid I always use britpart ones - cheap and easy to replace if needs be. Been using these guys a bit lately - and been impressed with service&delivery…https://www.lrparts.net/

It would seem the stainless ones for a series are up to four times the price of the stainless mini ones.

I like the lack of rivets.
It rained on the way home this morning and the weld snot held out. Might get a few years out of it

Your lucky the wipers work….
I only sit in the passenger seat on the S1 & the wiper is manually operated. Plus it’s better not to see how the mrs drives
