No, I recently adapted a Reliant windscreen wiper stalk to fit my Mog (the proper wiper/washer switches are on the dashboard) but used Lucas part for that.

You can usually make anything fit to anything, but looking at photos online, there would be considerable fabrication/wiring to get the Sprinter kit to work.

My understanding is the 'Lucas' us oldies know hasn't existed for years, the comfortably familiar boxes you buy with the white and green logo contain parts made in the far east and from bitter personal experience can be very poor quality, Caveat Emptor !

I don't think the quality was ever that brilliant - hence the moniker 'Prince of Darkness' smile

When BSA closed down their Armoury Road works in Small Heath, a mate of a mate joined the nightshift at Lucas.

Said it was the best night's sleep, he ever had!

Yes you are correct.
I was thinking more of the late 90's and things like the "ten minute rotor arms"

What about a little heating before you bend the stalks.?

If stalks are some kind of plastic as was written here it mist be possible to bend them with your fingers - but you have to wear thick leather gloves....
