Fiat Punto Mk2:

Pretty much the same as Marea one tbh. Also Punto Mk1 will fit - just a bit shorter

yea may be able to get a punto one.
do these just fit straight on when you take the old one off?
looks better than the skinny standard one

Yep, literally old bolt off, wiper arm off, new wiper on, old bolt back on 5 Minute job, tops! Straight fit basically.

Are you sure? The mk2 Punto one that Hamman posted up doesn't look like it fits flush at the bolt, if you see what I mean. There's a similar problem with using the mk1 Punto arm (it's also smaller too) Where as my Marea one fitted perfectly flush.

I dont think they are quite identical - just v similar. No it doesnt fit quite as flush as the Marea one, and is about 2 cm shorter iirc

dont put a new rear wiper on, leave it off and remove the boot lock and smooth the boot. Looks a lot nicer

if your doing that, just smooth the boot lock and wiper - leave the number plate

They're only £19 straight from a Fiat parts dept anyway. How much more can you save on that from eBay?
