Wiper arms - same as Golf?

[Joe87]

Hello,

I desperately need a pair of front wiper arms for my Mk2 as I'm unable to legally drive without them. Does anyone know whether they'd be the same as a Mk1/2 Golf? I figure I'm more likely to find one of those in a scrappy than a Scirocco.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers.

Thanks mate. Bought some off a Golf from a scrappy today and they look identical, not tried to fit them but I imagine they'll be the same.

Damn, should have checked the size of the splined shaft. Apparently it's bigger on a Golf :S

There are two sizes for a Scirocco also, the earlier cars were tightened with 10mm nuts and the later cars were 13mm nuts. I know this because I snapped a nut on the spindle on my Storm and the only replacement motor I could get was a later one, hence I needed the arms also!
