    i have flat wipers on the front of my mk2 but the back wiper is specific fit, so i was wondering if i could get a wiper blade arm from a mk1 which is a hook so then i can get a flat wiper.
    any help appreciated just wanted to know if anyone has put a mk1 rear wiper arm on a mk2 cheers

    You mean these ones, the 20" & 18"..the 18" ones are annoying and dont exactly stay on the screen
