You have achieved something that MMC have failed to sort.

Well done.

Wish I could say the same! Mine arrived this morning and on fitting noticed that the driver side rubber was overlapping the screen, so I trimmed 1/8 inch off and it just about cleared. Then on full arc, they were all fouling the bottom frame of the screen, the middle one by a good 10mm. So I adjusted all the arms on the splines as much as possible so that they park a little lower, and that has improved but still not perfect.
I notice that these “ 7 inch “ blades actually measure 7 3/8 inches! If only they were 7 inches the issue would be resolved but it is not possible to cut the fouling ends any shorter.
Maybe this is yet another Morgan thing but would be interested to see how others get on?


My wipers arrived some days ago.
I have to say that I have a similiar problem on my (Rhd) car.
The left wiper overlaps on the left side of the frame. Here it is possible to cut a small piece from the "upper" part of the rubber.
The wiper in the middle overlaps the frame on the bottom about 8-10mm. So it is impossible to cut the rubber on this wiper.

I try to find some rivets that connect the different parts of the wiper and hope to find how to solve this problem.
Ms. BMGermany does not like the sound when wipers hit the frame!
quiet

As you will see from previous threads, there are two easy solutions:
1.Adjustable wiper arms
2. Lower gearing on the wiper motor...I went from 130 to 120 degrees, the reduced sweep is hardly noticeable, but the blade hitting the frame has been cured.
Trying to re-rivet seems a difficult job.



Many thanks Dough,

In the meantime I have 3 wipers from CBS and 3 wipers from MR11MOG in my shelf so I wanted to find a solution without buying even more parts that maybe don´t fit....

I have to order all the parts in GB and have to pay more than 12 GBP for shipping so " trial and error" is a little bit expensive. Next problem is my limited english, often it is difficult for me to understand some tecnical explanations here...

But I think perhaps your adwise is the best and quickest way to go.

Is there any good photo of the adjustable wiperarms from CBS? The picture on their website is very poor.

Do I understand correctly that I need the right park version of the adjustable wiper arms?
