I take it you have suchlike (the sealing strip, anyway) as well?
I was contemplating the inept wipers - the springs in the arms have gone
weak, I reckon - not enough pressure on the screen. That and the bushes on
the spindles are naff - screws either buggered or sheared off. So a new
screen (at least for the driver's side - passengers don't have to see where
they're going) would improve matters.
