Hi everyone I'm new here :)

This may be a strange question but I've driven a few 2CVs and found the wipers park in front of me (RHS UK cars) when it would be much less obtrusive if they parked to the left. Can this be adjusted?

Thanks.

Thanks for your help and advice Malte - much appreciated Wink

In fact I did find this question answered on another forum yesterday and it involved removing the wiper rack, then turning the main drive lever on the motor through 180 degrees. Carried it out today and it works fine. It also gave me the opportunity to service and lubricate the entire wiper mechanism. The wiper spindles were very tight and need a lot of attention before moving freely. Fortunately the wipers are much faster now :)
