Subject:Re: About the wipers...

What I meant was…I’m not sure that right hand drive Vanagons with a rear wiper have a mirror imaged one. South African and Australian Vanagons (Kombis/Transporters) definitely had mirror imaged front wipers compared to the US. I would not be surprised if the SA/Australian rear wipers were mirrors of their fronts, I just haven’t been able to find any photos to demonstrate that.
