Fabia rear wiper

[Al_G]

Does the estate wiper arm look and fit better on an LCR than the Fabia Hatch arm?

cheers

You need the Estate's for most of it the Hatch only donates the jet cover but, if my memory is correct...

The estate arm is longer, so is pretty close to the standard Leon wiper.

whats so good about a Fabia wiper?

What's so exciting about the Fabia rear wiper? I noticed that my Leon rear washer jet doesn't squirt above about 4 inches of the rear screen - is that it?!! (daft question most likely)

6Y6955704 (replaced by 6Y6955707A) - Fabia Estate Wiper Arm
6Y0955425 - Fabia Estate Wiper Blade
6Y6955435 - Fabia Hatchback Wiper Cover

From Pabs guide,

I can confirm 100% that these are the correct parts and part numbers. This is what I ordered from the dealer in Germany. Its a Skoda/SEAT/Audi/VW multi franchise and I checked the parts when they arrived against a Fabia estate. Wiper Arm and Blade are definitely from the estate and cover is definitely from the hatchback. Everything fits the Leon perfectly.

I will Second that, all of the above is correct. Got all my parts today.

I bought mine on Tuesday from the dealer. Told him what parts I wanted, and low and behold the part numbers match the ones we've been posting all along

how long is the estate arm?

 

[Icecavern]

About 1cm shorter than the standard one.

The hatchback wiper is a lot shorter.

 

[Al_G]

Im having difficulty removing the existing wiper. I've undone the 13cm bolt but the OE Wiper is stuck fast. I'm a little scared that if I pull it too hard I might break something!

Any ideas???

 

[Icecavern]

WD40, and wiggle it like mad

About 1cm shorter than the standard one.

The hatchback wiper is a lot shorter.

i've thrown the standard one away.

so how long is the estate one?

the hatchback one is about 19" in total, including the bit which goes over the spindle

sorry to rob this post but will a fabia rear wiper fit a VW gold MK3 1996?

 

[Dom Sweeten]

Is this one off vagparts.com any different?

Looks ok to me... anyone got one?
Same price.

 

[olaf]

Vagparts one dosent look anywhere near as slick!

 

[RobM]

I quite like that one, but really do prefer the Fabia version. Looks much more suited to the Leon.

 

[rllmuk]

I prefer the vagparts one - isn't it off the Touran or something?

 

[Icecavern]

Yeah its the aero wiper that one, think its off the touran. The fabia one looks cleaner to me but they both work much better than the crap thig put on by Seat...
