Hi Guys,

I have seen a set of 1970 windscreen wipers for sale in the US. I have a 1970 Fastback, right hand drive. Would these suit, or did the left hand drive cars have different wipers?

Thanks,

Jed

You have to be carefull buying wipers as there are a few differences.

My 68 has wipers that park to the left. I think that from 69 they parked to the right.

I think that the later ones have a spline type fit with an external nut/bolt you can see on top.

I think that they are the same across the globe but they did change from time to time.

71 was when they changed to right parking.

they also has bolt on and clip on wipers.

I think 68? and earlier were clip on and after that is bolt on.

71 notchback,
