I want to put on my aero wiper but dont know how to get the old bugger off!!
Anyone?

Where it is attached, lift the cap then use a 13mm spanner to undo the bolt

What cap?? It's the original! Does it need some elbow grease? I don't want to snap anything!

yeah i understand its the original, there is still a cap over where it is bolted on. I'll try take a photo later of my original wiper, its in the boot of my car

EDIT here is a pic that should help...lift up the cap then undo the nut holding the wiper on...

And once the bolt is removed lift the wiper up, so that it's sticking out, and just give it a slight wobble back and forth to release it from the splines on the motor.

Cheers boys just needs a tug!! I just didn't want to end up ripping it if I was wrong! Much appreciated!!

they couldnt have given you a better description. What they said Unfortunately ever since I fitted the new wiper, I've never had a perfect fit and wipe as the old one used to but at least it looks way better.

really? mine works like a charm and looks miles better than the little spindly old one haha

mine has somewhat got problems even on the bit where the nut fits. the new wiper kind of stands out from the housing leaving the nut a bit farther out. I dont really believe the rear wiper of the ST is different from mine =S

which wiper did you buy mate?

hmm i tried two different ones on ebay

I still say u cant go wrong with the Opel/Vauxhall Astra H Hatchback wiper

yes I have antics. that one fits best but still not perfect imo
