Does anybody know where I can source a pair of windscreen wipers for a prestige 32? The make is Doga and they are bolt on type and measure 27 inches.

Hi Trooper,
The wiper blades are what is called a 16.5mm pin fixing and are commonly used on lorries, trucks etc with panto-graph arms.
They are available from any truck parts retailer.
I have found if you go for a slightly shorter blade say 24" or 26" the price halved and still give a good wipe.
regards,
Napoleon

Hi Trooper,
Further to my last post I have since found out that the panto-graph type blades from Vetus are also the 16.5 mm type. Have just bought some 27" in Stainless Steel for less that most truck places want.
The vetus Shop is in Fareham - near Gosport.

Napoleon Did not know about this dealer and I quite like Vetus products, thank you for sharing For example, this looks a useful product I normally use a strap wrench on mine www.vetus-shop.com/filter-lid-removal-wrench-for-vetus-ftr330-series-p-3252.html

Got the new wipers from the Vetus site, great service, quick delivery and they are an exact match/fit. I'll definitely be using that site again and recommending it to others.
Thanks for sharing

Hi just noticed this thread as I need a new wiper for my prestige 32.
My wipers are held on by two machine screws. I have been to vetus at fareham and they have nothing that resembles this. I have looked in the Durite catalogue and they call these two bolt fixings literally “2 screw fixing“ They also make wipers with “16.5 mm channel and pin“ which look nothing like the two bolt fixing I have on my P32.
Am I misunderstanding something here?
Either way Durite no longer make a 700mm 28“ 2 screw fixing although I believe there might be some old stock somewhere.

During your research by any chance did you come across a supplier for the actual Doga motor ?
