Clive Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Does anyone know where I can get the rubber tubes that go over the wiper spindles? The ones on my motor have perished and I need to replace them. Otherwise does anyone know an alternative source? Also I need some new (2) 'shaped grommets' to fit over the spindles on the outside of the scuttle panel. Anyone know where I can get these?

g&t Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Parts like these are probably only available from main dealers, unless you can sus. out what other manuf used them as I doubt they were specific to LR. I'm suprised at just how many of the smaller/obscure components are still available to order, even though many major items are not If you can find the part numbers themselves (& your local dealer can't help) try entering 'The Part' into your search engine as this will check if any stock is available throughout the UK.

David Wright Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 According to my Microcat these are part no 607107 and Cotswold Land Rovers are selling them for £2 each - I do not know anything about the tubes that you refer to - there does not seem to be any tubes on the Microcat drawing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wright Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Having had another look at the Microcat drawing it looks as though part no 607107 is the tubes that you want - can you not make the gaskets from a piece of gasket material?

Clive Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks g&t and Dave I checked out Cotswold Land Rovers, but they have been taken over by Tim Fry Landrovers and all stock of this item has gone! I'll try my local Land Rover dealer, but the guy at Tim Fry said they are no longer available. We'll see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 I found one at APB Trading and bought it! They are no longer available from the factory and are no longer available from a dealer! When I get it, I'll measure it and see if I can find some rubber tube to match! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santalars Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 LRseries have been a good part source for small items in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
