[LEON_FR]

Ok i know im going to sound REALLY thick here but....i cant fit the wiper!!!
Ive undone the bolt at the top of the wiper but then the wiper still wont come off ive give it a bit of a pull (without going mad) but no joy! HELP!

just needs some persuasion mate - I gave mine a bit of a wiggle and a twist, it came off eventually

 

[cheekyfella]

Yep, wiggle it a bit!

 

[Mr Roboto]

Same here mate

Mine was really tough to remove, had to use alittle WD40 around it and pop off it came

put a piece of strong card between the window and the wiper arm and using a large flat blade screw driver slowly prize it off.

wiggle it - just a little bit. Lemme see u wiggle it, just a little bit

Its tough, but wd40 and GENTLE rocking from side to side does the trick

 

[LEON_FR]

Cheers boys!

 

[Chris`I]

Yup same here, thought I was gonna break it

Lil bit of GT85 (booo to WD40 ) and lots of wiggling and off it came. New one looks awesome

 

[FriarFR]

or use a very big pair of pliers to pop it off....

 

[LEON_FR]

Finally done it!
Fu*k me it took some pullin off!
