   but when i came to de wiper my car earlier, the bolt on the outside under the cover wouldnt come off of the wiper.
   
   ive done a search and found snewhams and it sounded like you saw the actual wiper off, my question is:
   
   do i saw this bolt off (that wouldnt come off) or do i saw the actual wiper arm???
   
   any help, cheers in advance

   yea thought mine was gonna smash was making some really strange noises lol, i ended up sawing the actual arm off below the bolt just means that it wont be being used again. could try soaking it tho if you wanna put it bak on again sometime. get pics posted when u done it

   yeh i dewipered my 106 and i was tugging away trying to remove it when the actual plastic seal under the nut (the piece just touching the window) cracked. i shat myself and inspected the whole window then realised everything was ok and then the wiper slid off easily. i then went to halfords and bought a handful of bungs and super glued the bung and the original seal onto the window. it looks loads better but aint practical at all lol (cant see nothing when its dirty)

    saw, saw, saw.
    
    and the reason an r reg came off easy is cause the later models were kinda ceased on. you'll find this with other things such as door pins etc
