I got some new windscreen wipers today.... the satisfying streak free silent operation gives me immeasurable satisfaction!  :grin:

I'm terrible for having to have my wiper blades in perfect condition. My rear one is well stuffed but I refuse to buy a new one as its going very soon  :signLOL:

Me and my brother replaced my faulty rear wiper motor today with my brothers old one from his 56 plate Golf S. its the latest revision C so hopefully no more random operation and the water pump works fine  :happy2:

was getting a bit freezing tho. found it was better to put the boot cover on from the bottom up! just have to watch the top to make sure it latches over and doesnt trap tabs the wrong way.

He was trying to persuade me to de-wiper it but i like seeing out the back window. especially on motorway journeys!

gotta wait till next week for my mate to put the new door rubber on. and another mate to get some door lube from work....... drivers side squeaking like a biatch!
