Who here has fitted a Brazilian Bay Kombi Front
Hi all ,
in the next week or so i am going to be changing the front nose on our bay Kombi due to some previos owner bad repairs and the typical bad rust around
the bottom of the screen recease.
I bought the new panel from Micks on thursday arvo and only noticed yesterday that they are a left hand drive only panel in regards to wiber mounting
humps.
So my question to any one that has already fitted one of these fronts is what did you do for these humps if anything or did you just modify the wiper
bases to suite what is just the radiused shape of the area that they go.
Thanks in advance Andrew

Andrew,
Kombi's delivered (and assembled) in Oz were a bit all over the place, not all had the wipers swinging in the same direction as yours. I'm guessing
it's just a matter for fitting a motor and assembly off a different year model.
