original wiper adaptors

[DX702682]

Hi everybody, one of my wiper adaptors snapped the other day. I got replacement parts from Simon but the hole size was smaller and my wiper arms did not fit. Does anybody have a solution? Where I may be able to obtain equivalent parts, whether there are other wiper blade that fit Murena's wiper arms, etc. This wiper arm seems called the bayonet type, and cross sectional profile is approx. 9.0 mm x 3.3. mm, whereas a common bayonet seems 7 mm wide. Please help me, it is going to rain tomorrow here... Hisashi

Is this the plastic thing sitting at the end of the wiper arm? I don't recall seeing anyone with the same problem. What does Simon have to say to your problem. It looks like there are two different width of wiper arms.

Those clips are very breakable.
Some are for renault and don't fit exactly.
costed me a window in the past..

The Ford Ka older type fits on the joints. Then you have the hooked fit for the wipers, so you can mount wipers to your like.
LHD Ka, don't now about RHD





On Murena






This is also interesting.

They are LHD MK 1 Ka wiper arms only RHD is the wrong orientation. I looked for some MK 1 Ka's in scrap yards around Rotterdam back in 2018ish and they had already all rusted away so you will be lucky to find one now.

I had the same issue. I ordered 2 and when they arrived they looked the same as the originals, but were a bit too tight. In the end, and with no other option, I filed down the ends of the arms a little. The alternative would have been to try and force them on, which could mean they would be more likely to snap in the future.

I've made a note to change them again in 5 years, even if the current ones are OK – preventative maintenance!

I got one recently from Matramagic in the UK which fitted perfectly to the original arms on my Murena
