Doesn't sound right - when I replaced my drivers side on the S2 the part looked the same (it was certainly the same length). Is the old one stamped with the same number?

There's no number stamped into the new one, it was just on the bag. I didn't see a number on the old one either, I'll have a better look though. I'm thinking there's a change over at some point but I've only got a parts catalogue which covers the earlier cars. Is nothing ever simple?! It's a sod cos it's an hour to my nearest OPC (leeds) so I pay postage on everything.
 
I've bought a new wiper linkage to replace the one which pops off at the drivers side (the short one). I've read a few threads on here about it and based on one of these I ordered part number 477 955 035 B

Had a look tonight at what's involved in fitting it and it's shorter than the original by about 2 inches. [:mad:]

Is this correct (ie an update or alternative part) and all I need to do it move the wiper round on it's spindle after fitting or do I have the wrong part? My car is an S2 if it makes a difference.
 
Pretty sure the drivers side is the long one, you weren't reading a US website were you? more info here http://www.titanic.co.uk/944/FAQs.html Tony
