Hi Guys
Does anyone who has fitted and tried know of a good quality replacement or compatible wiper blade for the Eagle SS pantograph wiper (Lucas) ?
Thank you
Mark

That's very kind of you Jason but please don't go to any trouble or out of your way. I was hoping to get one online but most seem unsuitable or online suppliers unwilling to help. Cheers Mark

Halfords have a good range if you know or can work out the size you need.

I thought I would update this thread to let all know what I did in the end to get the wiper blade and my car past its MOT just in case it’s useful to anybody. The Lucas pantograph wiper system supplied by Eagle cars circa 1983 came with a wiper unit that were fitted to some very old commercial vehicles. It is bolt on, 20 inches with a 13.6 mm bridge as opposed to modern clip fittings, so this type is generally only available from a commercial vehicle supplier. I paid a visit to HGV direct in Birmingham and they were very helpful This Champion T51S04 Aerovantage wiper blade fits perfectly is excellent quality and comes complete with a brand new bolt and was around £15.00.
