R400/N/96 wiper switch - MG-Rover.org Forums

Gentlemen!

It seems that I broke the wiper switch on my R400 by washing window too emotionally (so it is not washing now at all, all the rest is OK). Please could anyone give advise about the possible cost of this item and is it really difficult to change it myself? I found they cost about 12 quids for R600 on ebay. But in garage they wanted 43 pounds for part and 15 pound for labour. Where is the truth? I know that it is out there.

Thank you in advance

Andrey

I cannot imagine it being too hard to change - try the local scrappy, he may be cheaper as well.Have a look at the Haynes manual.
