Single-arm winscreen wiper system

[Xti]

Have any of you guys changed your windscreen wipers system into a single arm one (like the DTM ones)? Or do you know someone who modified the 155 stock windscreen wipers system into a single arm system? Thanks a lot.

Cheers.

do you think a single windscreen wiper will clean more aria from the oem system?
Or are you interested for this mod just for the aesthetic effect?

btw I thing I saw someone with this mod. Do not remember who was.

There's a few on 155.org have done this modification.

It can be achieved by cutting and re-welding the OE linkage or using the linkage from another car (Citroen I think!).

Haven't got time to search for the thread now, but will do later today.

I have this modification. If you are tall, you will have a less clear view when the screen is dirty. Take a closer look at the picture below.


You can use a Citroen AX or ZX wipper system (ZX is a bit stronger). The only thing that needs to be adjusted, is the length of the wipper mechanism.

Thank you for the effort to find the link, wrinx.
Thanks guys, always really liked the atmosphere on the forum.

I'd like to do this mod just for the esthetic aspect and similarity to DTM ones.

Cheers.

I think I am going to have to do this too as I still have the original linkage over sweeping too much.
What car is the wiper itself from Marc?

What car is the wiper itself from Marc?

I thought a Lancia Ypsilon y10 from 1991.
