Ross Askham Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 Question.... I am struggling to find the headlamp wipers for my Manta B GTE. Do you think it would not look right if I was to remove them and fill the holes in the bumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

®evo03 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Is the hole in the bumper for the washers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 they are hard to find full stop and finding a working pair is even harder. i had this issue years ago on my carlton and senator even when they were fairly new. one motor ( cannot remember which) is the main control motor and the other side slaves off it with a run signal. because of where they are mounted they get sprayed with water constantly and it finds its way inside. if volvo units fit and are easier to find thats great news. not looked into that ?

Sutty2006 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 I’m not sure about motors, it’s the blades I was referring to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam.in.head Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 im pretty sure i made mine from sections of a larger one . there all slightly different and the length of a particular one was a perfect size / fit . althouggh in my carlton there purely athestic as they havnt worked for many years . ( i reppaced the main motor with a new old stock one shortly aftee buying the car in 94 but it didnt work for long ! maybee less than 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
