window wipers and arm damon daybreak 1996

[frances.de.koumba]

hello, I'm searching for window wipers and a wiper arm for my Damon Daybreak 1996; it's the one with a double arm. One of them snapped and they're both super old so looking into swapping them for new ones. Does anyone know which model it is?

Those look like AM Equipment parts.

This could be the one:

200467 - 28

Cross Reference ?49-26PN (Anco)

The main thing is to find out about shipment to the UK.

Do what I did just replace it with a single arm

thank you everyone

What did you end up doing? Did you replace the arm?

 

[frances.de.koumba]

I'm not entirely yet. The double arms are quite expensive so I might change both to single arms.

i'll have to check the lenght to the arm I suppose, and then pick out the right wipers.

 

[frances.de.koumba]

I'll keep you posted.

still searching for an equivalent of these arms; quite a few jobs have pilled up recently on my RV so planning became quite a dishearting task I have to admit

So I got the window wiper now and here is the problem. It doesn’t stick to the windscreen properly. There’s this part in the middle that pushes against the blade making it stick out on both ends. Am I missing something or should I just trim that plastic bit?

It looks that the arm's tension is set too high, therefore applying too much pressure to the centre part (see pic below)?

I'm not familiar with the procedure (if any) to release some of the tension in the arm

It looks like you have the wrong style wiper blade. You should have one with a hole through the wiper arm frame to insert the removable pin at the end of the Damon wiper arm through.

This video at the 2:04 mark shows how the blade is mounted to an arm with a non-removable pin. The pin on the Damon arm goes through the other hole not used in the demo.

Is that a saddle fitting?
