    I have different wiper arms,(size and brand) (silver)on my 1979 308GT4,I dont know which one is correct for the car.Can anyone advise as to where I can get hold of the correct ones?I believe the correct ones have a cover(boss)where they connect to the splined shaft and they are silver or stainless steel.
    Thanks Geoff

    Thanks Tom,I have spoken to Superformance and they have advised that the arms they have, fix to the GT4 with an exposed locking nut.Possibly aftermarket manufacture.The correct arms have a pivoting cover over the locking nut on the splined shaft!Every pic I have of a GT4 shows the pivoting cover whether black or stainless finish!

    Just called Maranello's. They have them in stock. 10 of one and 6 of the other. Don't have my parts book to hand so can't tell you which one is which at the moment. Priced around GBP42 each! Ouch!!
