How infuriating?!??

[Hamish Gill]

I bought a be golf for Hannah
A week later the wipers pack in!
I buy a new relay off eBay, that doesn't work
I buy a new motor and linkage ...
Bare in mind I don't usually turn my hand to this sort of thing...
I manage to the the wipers off the car, and a load of the plastic trim and after a load of fiddling get the motor and linkage out and place it on the ground next to the one I bought

My bottom, new one top ... Spot the difference
Mine

New one

What's more annoying is the one on the eBay picture looks just like mine ... The chap has sent me the wrong one!

So I've had to out it back together without wipers!
If I did this stuff all the time is be annoyed...
I've never done anything like this before and was pretty chuffed if got as far as I had...

Hamish I wish I could help, I would give you the part for free
so far in my life I have owned the following Volkswagens
2 Cabriolets
A Corrado
2 Golfs
A Jetta (Bora in some countries)
A Eurovan

Still have the Corrado and a VR6 Golf, and I'm quite an enthusiast. I've been working on cars such as these for the past 10 years so you can imagine my stock pile of parts...

Well, now that the summer is here you won't have any use for wipers anyway!!

This is the other annoying bit...
Took this just after

I can still see much only it in the creases o my baby soft photographers hands

Cheers Fidel!
Sounds as though I could have done with you closer by!

I've just bought another motor ... Just te motor this time ... Knowing my luck it will be a problem with the linkage now!
