veedubyah 0 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I'm thinking of putting a rear wiper & arm off the mk5 gti onto my 97 highline. Is the length of this newer wiper & arm going to be right for the mk3 and are the splines on the wiper motors the same on both cars? Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 the mk5 is straight where the mk3 has a bend, you are better off with the bmw 1 series rear wiper arm which is a direct fit, you need to get a 1 series rear blade too but some people find the 11" blade a bit short tho, i got a 14" rear blade from halfords and swapped over the middle connectors so i had a 14" blade with a 1 series connector Link to post Share on other sites
