Any car accessory shop should be able to supply you with one

Get the one with the arm. S1 wipers are bollocks!

If you get the arm then any old wiper refill form halfrauds will fit and it even wipes the screen properly... :lol:

With a very slight modification

The Tesco (2 pack) @ £2.99 does the job!

Second the Tesco twin pack. I did need to knock the centre pin out of the new blade, but that was easy.

I still have the original S1 wiper arm but I modded it using the instructions here CLICKY
