You can probably get cheap n cheerfuls, try a local motor spares or Halfords, the Delica won't be listed so measure it with a tape measure to ensure you get the right size or take the old one in and measure it up.

I'll check mine tonight, I need a new one on the drivers side. Should be able to disconnect the part that has got the screw adapter and replace just the blade. Worst case would be to buy the rubber and replace that but it's fiddly and not the best. Confused

changing the rubber only is something we are hopefully going to try to avoid too Smile

on this occasion, decided to play it safe and order a proper set from the dealer, we'll then change the rubbers a few times on it to kinda re-coup the cost a bit!

no idea how much they are at the mo, will let ya know later.. ordered them at 2pm yesterday, and they will be in for me today Smile can't argue with that!! although a few of the mechanics came out to have a look at the motor with a few comments like what on earth is that! etc lol one sales advisor took a real interest tho, and is looking for a paint stick to match up the colour for us Smile

Could you be a real angel and let us know if he come's with a match ?? Smile

Is he looking for both the green and the grey ?

I'd love to know 'cos I've got some bits and pieces to spray up.

Thanks. Smile
