Hey guys, I'm not sure this is a 206 problem more of a numpty owner problem but wasn't sure where else to post (I'm new please don't flame me toooo much ).
So when I got my 206 the rear wiper was too big and wasnt clearing the roof spoiler I dont know if thats a common thing or not I'm guessing the guy who had it before me replaced it and got the wrong size, who knows.
So I think that's not too bad I know it should be a 14" on the rear and I hear these aeroblades are good so I pick up one that supposedly has a universal fitting and try and fit it but I can't work it out . It appears to need a hook which I don't have? Can I get a converter or are the aeroblades only compatiable for front windscreen?
Many Thanks

For my rear, I just bought a new wiper from eBay. There is a Peugeot dealer on there that sells them cheap.
Edit: I'm sure I recognise that username from years ago? Could have been FoolThrottle though

You can buy a rubber bung that you tiger seal in and that stops the rain getting in.
Looks smart too.
