   i decided to remove my rear wiper, i see the parts on ebay and they were £7 (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1) so jsut before i ordered i thought i'd see how much they were direct from peugeot, they were only £2.04p including next day order lol so i recommend anyone whos doing this mod to save themselfs a fiver and get the parts from peugeot, the part numbers are:
   
   Wiper Plug - 874542
   Screw - 874543
   Washer Plug - 874544

    21p at my local motorshop.
    Beat that
    
    Oh to remove the wiper
    Molegrips inbetween the top of the bolt thread the wiperarm sits on and the top of the wiper arm squeeze lightly and it will come.
    You dont have to worry about cracking the window as your only putting pressure on the wiperarm and the thread.
