My rear wiper is dead. Need to sort a replacement. Where is the best/cheapest place to get one?

Will one from another vag hatch fit? Golf,, Ibiza etc??

Mine broke and I looked at one from a Polo at a scrappy. I'm not sure what year it was, but the location holes were different to the Fabia.

 

The best place I found was http://www.skospares.com/ They are a specialist Skoda dismantler. I'd imagine they can post to Ireland, but I'd contact them to check first.

Cheers.

 

What are my options for a new one? Dealer only?

Eurocar Parts sells them.

Do people de-wiper their Fabia's just like Polo owners do? Unless Skoda owners really are more sensible I reckon someone's bound to have a discarded but perfectly operational motor in the back of their garage!

Looks good and says one off a golf etc will fit

More importantly, as the back of Fabia 1 is a soot and dirt magnet, I think it's needed.
