Windscreen wipers
by Drift on Sun Apr 05, 2009 4:55 pm
Ages ago some time last year when I bought my anti roll bar bushes from Milner off road I thought I might as well get some wiper blades as they where cheap, well Ive fitted then just now and they are to big just, they will work ok but for the MOT I think I will fit the old ones back on, the new wipers sweep over my FOG windscreen sticker, so theoretically it could fail the MOT.

Is this not more of a sticker problem than the wipers at fault 
Sounds like driver error to me

the boy racer brigade get really arsy when you fail there saxo's on the massive sunstrips that cover half the front screen, had one the other day bring it back with really small wipers on it, so failed it for wipers being too small 
that really touched a nerve as your only allowed 1 free (partial retest)
