    Best place to get a new wiper linkage

    Hope somebody could guide me to getting a replacement one of these:



    The white bush is buggered on my wiper arm.
    Guess il have to go back to Nissan to get it?
    Any help is appreciated

    My middle pivot (that holds passenger side arm) did wear out, and I bought a new one from Nissan for about £30.

    But from reading the forum, they don't seem to wear out all that often, so a second hand one would be worth a punt.
    Any of the cars in the 'breakers' bit should have one for something like ten or 15 pounds posted.

    The white bush is actually part of the centre pivot. You will see what is meant when you remove it. They do fail but not that option. You can use a second hand one but its not the nicest job in the world to do and you'll be kicking yourself if you end up doing it again later on.

    Oh you'll also find the nuts are so rusty the captive bolts will turn so you amy need to very very carefully cut thoses nuts of

    im fairly sure i have a decent used one. but has been said they are a ball ache to fit. thats why my brand new nissan s13 one has been under the bench for 2 years.
