Does anyone know how to do this?
My wipers are set for LHD configuration, so the most amount of vision atm is given to the passenger.

How can i reverse the direction the wiper blades go?
can i get a motor that spins the other way or what? TY

You have to shift the assembly across.
My Veronika is ex-LHD but it was originally RHD wipers so it has been shifted across once before.

sorry, but what do u mean by shifted across?

the position in which the arms are mounted will probably be offset more to one side of the car than the other... think you have to move them to the other offset position.

Yeah, by shifting I mean cutting and welding the arm drive. May sound like a lot of work, but like I said it's been done on my bug and it looks quite simple.
Of course this would only be useful if you were to repaint the car anyway, but if you were'nt I'll try out a few things on my bug to see what I come up with.
This is my bug pre RHD conversion, but the wipers are still as they are in this shot.

They had been changed to this configuration when it was originally converted to LHD.
Confusing, yes?
-Staggers.

OHHHHHHHHHHH, i thought they were directly in the centre.
hmm, bugger.
think i'll leave it then, i thought maybe it was likea matter of changing the arms are the motor to an rhd style, not a matter of cutting and shifting the arm mount points across.

Yeah, it's not for the faint hearted I gather.
-Staggers.

thats just the way all pre 67 bugs are
its only Lbugs that have the wipers reversed for LHD
flat screen beetles dont change for either way
brenton are u talking about moving the hole where the shaft comes through?
cuase in that pic of ur bug there in the spot where there ment to be anyway or was that after u moved them?

No trust me that's not where they're meant to be, but yes I am talking about the hole where the shaft comes through.

Mine is a '71 Super anyway, not pre '67.
-Staggers.

dont mind me i was in noddy mode when i wrote that
flat screen beetles wipers are the same whether the lhd or rhd
they're offset about 50mm to the right
i just had to double check so heres a pic for anyone who wasnt sure

Joel

So why does every LHD beetle I've ever seen pics of rest its wipers to the offside?!

i'm going to see my bug today, will look att where the offset is, coz the drivers side arm on mine needs to be raised abit as to not hit the A pillar. may look into reversing them.
