Hi Guys,   I cant find an answer anywhere,   could someone please shed some light on this,

 

My rear wiper arm just broke yesterday,   well, my Wife came back with just half an arm lol,

 

Looking on ebay and i've found

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SKODA-OCTAVIA-1Z5-ESTATE-REAR-WIPER-BLADE-AND-ARM-SET-BRAND-NEW-Onwards-2004-/400530039156?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AOctavia&hash=item5d41736174

 

mine is hatchback so 1z3  and this one is for estate 1z5... 

 

but it is same lenght of 300mm  and wiper blade 410mm      anyone fit any recently?    i've looked at the golf mk5 ones but the arms are shorter than the octy...

 

 

This is the one ive just fitted to my 2011 Octavia if its any help http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skoda-Octavia-Hatchback-2004-Onwards-Bosch-A400H-Rear-Screen-Wiper-Blade-/301309932864?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item462778b540

This is only a wiper blade,,,   what i need is actual Arm...    but thanks anyway for the reply bud

The part numbers look to be different for the hatchback and estate looking at this: http://www.partsbase.org/skoda/octavia-oct-eu-2005-1z-5-000-001-95530-wiper-and-washer-system-for-rear-window/

 

What the difference actually is I'm not sure as they share the same blade, still it might give you a starting point for finding the correct one.
