They should be relegated to the same duties as the stock TIGER Jack ? used for show only. They use a spring that is stretched (under tension) to provide the pressure to keep the wipers against the windshield. The problem with this arrangement is that the spring is under almost no tension when the wiper is in contact with the glass. A much more modern design is to have the spring under compression (and thus at it's strongest) when wiper is against the windshield. I found a wiper arm of this type that will fit the TIGER. They use a modern 13-inch wiper blade but unfortunately are finished in matte black rather than chrome as the originals are. The arms come from a Fiat 124 and must be cut down and bent to match the shape of the Tiger's arms. They do, however, clip right on to the TIGER splined wiper drive. I used a spot punch to dimple the new end to hold the wiper blades on. [CrawleyWiperMod.jpg] Wiper Motor Swap Two I installed Fiat wiper arms on my TIGER and, after 89,000 miles and 35 years I am still most pleased with the results.

I'll have to look. But of course, my cars haven't seen the rain in about 35 years now. And before I restored my Alpine back in 1988, those springs had apparently been enough to cause the wipers to carve lines in the glass! Interestingly, back in the late 70s, early 80s, when I was first driving my Alpine, a neighbor had a Fiat 124 Spyder. I was always envious of how easily his top could go up and down. He would just unlatch and flick it back. So maybe those Italians did have good ideas for some things! I was not however envious of his dash, steering wheel angle or lack of reliability.
