    the mk 1 is in the window as well, they are pretty easy to remove, and when u take the motor out it leaves room for a boot solonoid.

    Remember you must put your wiper back on for your MOT....If your car is fitted with a rear wiper as standard.....it must have one to pass its MOT???

    Don't think so....... if its not fitted then no worries. Only problem might be if you had one and it didn't work.

    don't it depend on wether the car was ever fitted with one?iam sure it don't matter like that anyway but might be a case of what garage you go too.
