   Are there any other wiper arms from another car that fit the Saxo?
   
   For example, something as subtle as this:
   
   
   Instead of the ugly Saxo ones!:
   
   
   Thanks.

   I'm unsure if you can, but could you use the arms from different cars...? As long as they are of the same size

   I wont work the saxo arms are the shape and size for a reason so they don't hit the bonnet. If you want them to look different then get some aero wipers.

   Cheers, I have aero wipers but the wiper arms, frankly, look ridiculous!
   
   I'm sure there are some that would fit and work without catching the bonnet!

    The flat blades do make a big difference.
