Yup - just need to reuse the clip from the old one! One of the cheapest and best mods to do! - that and upgrading the wiper relay. - about £5 from a scrappy!

I nearly got one, but don't think my spray-bar will fit it :?

At least with the spray bar, and relay 'upgrade' it's lots beter than before.

Pleasure. However make sure you screenwash is full as you may find yourself driving around in the sunshine spraying your window for the sole purpose of trying out your new blade. I've had mine a week and still do it :shock:

I couldnt swap the autobulbs wiper I had on s2 exige to s2 elise as the connector on the elise has a screw in it, so early s2`ers watch out.

You can get the later S2 arm. Fits on the earliest S1s & 2s. I have one on mine - stands prouder, but better spring tension and you can fold it up totally for cleaning the windscreen.

Got it from Owen at Raceparts many moons ago, before he went out of business and went into hiding...

MMC would probably be the best bet now. Chances are, yours will be fine though. It's only the earlier S2s that have the earlier arm.
