Talking Storms and rain! Wiper Stalk time!

Well boyz and girlies 4 storms today and i have decided that i want the Ghia wiper stalk because the 3 settings on the CL are CRAP!

Anyone in Aus done this yet or are we leaving it to me to try this one out?

I would really love a Ford Spares Part number if anyone can help me???

Yeah i got the same system man but i was reading about one of the guys in the UK who says it is a straight and easy swap!

Link is http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/...wiperstalk.htm

Seems easy enough

cool, hadnt seen that mod before, funnily enough I use rainx on my windows (front, back, and side) which I find sheets the water off as I drive, then I only use the wiper dip as required which isnt often if doing 50km/h or above.

Woohoo I found a PC on the net here - but not for long unfortunately. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, as I have been tempted to do this mod myself but keep getting side tracked doing other things...

If noone has done it by the time I get back, I will - If anyone does, take lots of pictures and info so we can make a tutorial on eurofordclub!
