Volvo 740 headlamp wiper arms..

Anyone breaking a 740 and has the headlamp wiper arms and the small plastic parts which the hoses connect to?

Potentially three different types depending what 700 you have - original, facelift and 900 style ?

Ah, good point!

Mine is a 1987 pre-facelift.

Problem you will have is sourcing the correct arms as there are very few original (I refuse to call 'em pre-facelift) 700s around in breakers yards. I'm not sure whether its because they're being saved (there's little interest on this forum) or whether they are just disappearing.

I had a boxful of assorted arms, if I can find the box I'll take a look...we've had a clearout and this may have gone to the tip - minus spare arms for my two.

Jon.

P.S might just be worth calling a Volvo dealer.
