With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.17/MJ.7.8.34., we make a point of trying the Klaxon wipers, and if they are reasonably quiet when fitted to the car, we let them go. We find one of the troubles we have had is due to the Coachbuilder in some cases fitting a connecting piece between the two boxes that is either too long or has too much of a bend in it. I should be interested now to hear your opinion of these wipers. J.L.E. | ||
