I bought a genuine on down at Donny and it actualy works a treat.. a bit pricey I know but you get what you pay for.
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....

The S2 blade is 24". The new one fits the screen perfectly.

The thing doesn't fit the arm on my S2!!!

The current one has a Philips screw on it - should that be right?

The new one seems to be for a standard hooked arm end....

Help!!

My S2 (111R) has a hooked end on the arm. Just unclipped and yanked off the old one, then clipped the new one in. :?

hmmm the philips screw wiper arm is on the S1.
I thought they got rid of that type when the S2 came along...?

you must have a very early S2 or some sadist has downgraded the arm! :? :roll:
