Puma Wash wipe stem
When putting the front wiper onto intermittent the switch stem hits my knee causing it to turn off.

Does anyone know of an alternative switch/stem assembly I could install which has a vertical bend? This would enable the resting position of the wiper switch to have a higher OFF position.

I had thought of bending the stem but for obvious reasons have not attempted to as do not want to break it.

Any bright ideas?...

I'm actually quite short at 4' 5" but have really long legs!

I'm going to give the Mudrails a go.

Many thanks for the advice.

Hi,

You can make a cheap fix by yourself. If anyone is interested I can post some pics and hints how to make it. The trick is to lift the seat rail 3 cm so you can move the seat further back.

Best regards, Janusz

If you use Mudrails the seat is bolted about another 75 - 100mm further back Thumbs Up as you can see in the photo below
